Namumkin (transl. Impossible) is a 1988 Bollywood mystery film, telling the story of an Asian family exiled from Idi Amin's Uganda. The screenplay was written by Bidhu Jha, who was later elected to the Legislative Assembly of Manitoba.
Plot[edit]
Shobha (Zeenat Aman) marries a Canada based big wealthy businessman Ashok Saxena (Shreeram Lagoo) almost twice her age. On wedding night, Saxena dies by falling out of his balcony.
Sunil Kapoor (Raj Babar) and his associate get involved in investigation due to the one million dollars insurance policy of Saxena. His death seems mysterious as the autopsy report mentioned heavy alcohol was consumed by Saxena, who was known to be a complete tea-tottler.
Also, Sunil's friend Shakti (Vinod Mehra) was earlier engaged to Shobha, so he flies down to Canada to meet Shobha.
Together they start investigation to find out what caused the death of Saxena and what circumstances caused it.
