Synopsis
Bel Ami
Georges Duroy travels through 1890s Paris, from cockroach ridden garrets to opulent salons, using his wits and powers of seduction to rise from poverty to wealth, from a prostitute’s embrace to passionate trysts with wealthy beauties, in a world where politics and media jostle for influence, where sex is power and celebrity an obsession.
Lekh
During their teen years, Rajvir and Ronak are attracted to one another but never act on their feelings. As years go on and they drift apart, they are reunited by fate and rediscover their attraction.
