After an unsuccessful stint in acting a few years back, Atul Agnihotri (Salman Khan's brother-in-law) makes his directorial debut with the movie Dil Ne Jise Apna Kaha .
In the movie, Salman plays a suave businessman Rishabh who runs a media company and is totally smitten with a beautiful girl named Pari (Preity). Life seems hunky dory for the two until a twist of fate changes it all when Pari has a fatal accident and Rishabh is left alone, devastated and in despair.
It is around this time he meets Dhani (Bhumika), an out-of-the-ordinary girl with the quality of appreciating small joys and pleasures of life. Dhani's presence brings a new lease of life to Rishabh. As the two spend more time together, they feel inevitably drawn towards each other.
But in his heart Rishabh cannot let go of his memories of Pari. He has to make a choice. Moreover, his dilemma is further strengthened by a shocking revelation by Dhani about herself.
According to Salman, Dil Ne Jise Apna Kaha is director Atul Agnihotri 's "labour of love ".
"Atul has been working on this project for many years now and I really admire his determination and hard work. The movie has turned out to be a sensitive love story," says Salman.
