He says that he is looking for a woman who has made her own identity away from the traditional stereotypes given to females by society. The host Tara wants to know who this mystery girl is. Mihir says that she would have to meet his mystery woman. Julie was watching this interview on TV and reaches out to Tara and says that she wants to give her interview on TV, and says that she a prostitute, a professional escort. Julie says that she is the mystery woman in Mihir's life. Julie says that Mihir does not know about her profession and wants the world and Mihir to find out together. Tara wants to hear Julie's life story before she grants her request. Julie's goes into the past to narrate her life. Julie (Neha Dhupia) is a girl next door from Goa, with her boyfriend Neil (Yash Tonk). Her father (Sudhir Joshi) runs a bakery and Julie is happy in her small life. Neil is ambitious and wants to be a rich businessman like Braganza. Julie says that a small house and a happy life is enough for her. Julie presses Neil to get married but he is not willing to commit. Neil seduces Julie to have sex with her. Julie's friend Dinky had recently moved to Mumbai to become an air-hostess. Neil moves away from Goa for a few weeks to Bangalore for a business-related purpose, and Julie starts dreaming of a family with him. Neil comes back and marries the daughter of a business tycoon in Goa, Braganza, in exchange of managing his business empire in Goa. Julie is heartbroken and cannot stand to be in Goa, as everything in Goa reminds her of Neil and his betrayal. Via Dinky Julie decides to move to Mumbai. Dinky gets Julie a job at a construction company. They both visit a salon where Dinky tells Julie that the owner Delnaz runs a side business as a pimp and supplies high class call girls to the high and mighty of Mumbai. Julie has bright interior design ideas at her job (such as color of walls to sky blue) and her ideas impress her bosses, specifically Rohan who is the resident interior designer at the company. Due to her suggestions, the entire project gets sold out in double quick time. Rohan charms Julie with sweet-talk and soon starts dating Julie. Rohan wins a large contract due to Julie's ideas. He says he wants to marry her, and Julie has sex with him. One day, she is physically abused by Rohan (Sanjay Kapoor). Rohan wanted Julie to sleep with a prospective client to help him win the contract, but Julie reacts violently. Rohan had argued that he was anyways planning to marry Julie, but one night with the client would have secured their financial futures for their entire life. Heartbroken and emotionless, she loses faith in love and decides to become a call girl (she meets Delnaz at a coffee cafe, and she understands her exploitation). Delnaz connects with Julie and says that a man always wants a woman to give up in front of impossible circumstances and don't expect her to fight back. She encourages Julie to take charge of her own life. Julie decides to create her own identity. That night, when Julie met Delnaz, she slept with her first client and became a professional prostitute. Dinky was away on an overseas assignment and hence could not stop Julie from taking this extreme step. One day Julie is asked to have sex with a minister in Delhi, but the payment is arranged by a different person. Turns out that the middleman was Neil. He is ashamed that Julie has become a prostitute, but Julie is not. Julie has a chance meeting with Mihir Shandilya (Priyanshu Chatterjee).

The next day he rushes back from the office to propose to her (his father had sent the photo of a girl from London, which makes Mihir realize that he loves Julie) Mihir is completely besotted by her beauty and, being a family-oriented man, proposes marriage to her. Mihir has a loving and supportive family, who all welcome Julie with a warm heart. The family includes Mihir's sister Sonia (Donny Bharadwaj). All is well except that Mihir, and his family are unaware of the fact that Julie is a high-profile prostitute. During a TV interview, Mihir surprises everyone by mentioning that there is someone special in his life. Julie is now in a dilemma. If she tells her future husband about her socially unacceptable profession then she may not be accepted by his family and if she doesn't, that will be bring untold pain and misery to them (and they are nice people). Julie does not want the family to suffer on account of her checkered past. Julie goes to the TV Show host Tara (Achint Kaur) saying she wants to be interviewed by her. Tara agrees after listening the Julie's entire life story. As the show goes live on air, it creates a mini earthquake in Mumbai political and financial circles, when she claims that Mihir loves her. The show goes off air due to protests and comes back on in a few hours with police protection. Mihir arrives on the sets and says that he knew the truth about Julie from 3 days ago. He still declares his love for Julie and re-commits his marriage proposal to her. He gives a lecture on how society wants prostitutes but won't accept them in their houses.
