Bunty Aur Babli released in 2005, is an Indian Bollywood film directed by Shaad Ali and starring Amitabh Bachchan, Abhishek Bachchan and Rani Mukerji. It was the first film to feature both Amitabh Bachchan and his son Abhishek Bachchan, and featured guest appearances by Aishwarya Rai and Tania Zaetta. It was one of the biggest hits of the year.
The plot, although it draws on the idea of two rather lovable crooks, much on the same lines as the 1967 Hollywood film Bonnie and Clyde, which starred Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway, does not contain much violence. In fact each of the adventures of Bunty and Babli are thoroughly Indianised, like the fake selling of the Taj Mahal.
Rakesh Trivedi (Abhishek Bachchan) belongs to a small village, his father a ticket collector on the train,and who wants him to get into a similar job as well.But Rakesh has big dreams, he is forever coming up with new business plans and he is convinced he will make it big one day.He adamantly refuses any notion that he will one day work in a 9-to-5 environment. Vimmi Saluja (Rani Mukerji) is the daughter of a Punjabi family in another small village;she spends her hours watching films and studying supermodels,and dreams of becoming Miss India one day.One day Vimmi’s parents tell her they have arranged her marriage to a young man with a decent job.At the same time Rakesh’s father gives him an ultimatum - go to the interview for the job he has arranged for him,or else get out of the house.They both pack their bags in their respective homes and sneak out in the dark of the night.They bump into each other at a train station, and become friends after realizing their stories are similar.Both try to achieve their dreams - Vimmi tries to enter herself in the Miss India contest but gets thrown out after an argument,and Rakesh tries to sell his ideas for an investment scheme, but a businessman turns him away. They support and encourage each other.But after finding out that the businessman who Rakesh had approached has used his idea to make money for himself,they con him and take money they believe is rightly theirs.They realise how easy it was to con some people and they decide to be do some more scams in order to raise money to make it in Bombay.Unfortunately for India,they find the lifestyle too exciting to give up.Adopting the fake names of ‘Bunty’ and ‘Babli’, they successfully pull off scam after scam, looting and conning rich people dressed as local guides,religious priests,health inspectors,business partner,s etc.Their flamboyant antics make them famous in newspapers nationwide.Soon their friendship leads to romance and they decide to continue scamming the rich as husband and wife.Little do they know that ACP Dashrath Singh {Amitabh Bachchan} is catching up with their scams and pranks, getting closer each time.He relentlessly pursues them across India in the hopes of putting them behind bars.
