Summary: Anamika begins when Vikram Aditya Sisodia who owns Gajner Palace in Rajasthan comes down to Mumbai for an international convention with a proposal to convert his palace into a resort. He runs into the naive and nubile Jia Rao, an escort whom he falls in love with. But before he marries Jia, he reveals that it would be his second marriage and his first wife Anamika had died under unfortunate circumstances. When Jia lands up at the picturesque Lake Palace of Gajner, two things hit her... the size of the place and the comparisons she draws to the beautiful socialite first wife Anamika.
Driven by a complex, she sets out to transform herself into Anamika much to Vikram's dismay... for it is not the kind of memory he preferred to revel in. And when Vikram's brother-in-law, a state cop, accuses Vikram of having a hand in Anamika's death, the mystery deepens...
Review: This isn't the type of Bollywood movie I usually watch (it came as a bonus dvd with one I ordered) but it was good. If you don't like Thriller/Mystery movies, you won't want like it. This story is pretty dark and some scenes are creepy. Kissing scenes were few and there was nothing inappropriate. There might have been 1 dance scene with a few problematic outfits but it wasn't too bad. There was no gore. The music was haunting and beautiful.

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars
