Leo Films International's KAHAN HO TUM, directed by Vijay Kumar, marks the debut of well-known model and VJ Ishita Arun.

KAHAN HO TUM is the story of three friends – Jai, Rakesh and Karan – caught up in a crime they did not commit. Unaware that they are under suspicion in the murder of a tribal beauty they had playfully chased while on a trek in the deep jungles, they continue with their normal existence in the city until…

Mansi, a film-maker from a far-flung place, arrives on the scene to look for Jai who is to accompany her on an assignment she is working on. To her utter dismay, she finds Jai has been missing for a very long time. It's while looking for the missing Jai that she stumbles upon certain painful realities.

Were Karan and Rakesh as innocent as they claimed to be? If so then who is the real culprit? And where had a straight-forward man like Jai disappeared?

Slowly and steadily Mansi unveils the whole mystery step by step with the help of a police officer, only to find that at the core of it all lies a social stigma, the very assignment she had come for.

The character sketches –

* Ishita Arun plays Mansi, a documentary film-maker. Her interest lies in making documentaries on varied social issue related subjects. For one such assignment, she is to be accompanied by Jai, a photo-journalist. At work they share a special rapport and on personal level a special bonding. Mansi is a go-getter. This trait of her character is obvious from her persistent effort in searching for Jai. She leaves no stone unturned to convince his friends to forgo everything and join the action.

* Samir Soni plays Jai, an orphan who lost his parents in a road accident and since the age of three, has been brought up in an orphanage under the guardianship of Father Lobo in Goa. Though an ace photo-journalist, he helps Father Lobo with the day-to-day running of the orphanage. He is the 'silent lover' who has never expressed his love for Mansi. But one can see it in his eyes. He is a true friend, philosopher and guide to people around him.

* Sharman Joshi plays Rakesh Kumar. He is impulsive, sensitive, moody and gets agitated especially when the odds are not in his favour. For him, his self comes before other relationships. But ultimately he proves that he does have a pure soul and a clear conscience, which often takes a backseat in the face of the earthly demands of family. His balancing factor is his fianc?Shweta.

* Sonu Sood plays Karan, an architect by profession who works in his father's firm. For him, relationships matter more than anything else. He has the courage to stand by his decisions inspite of pressures from all sides.
