[edit] Summary

Yakeen begins with a car falling over into a ravine. Later in a hospital, we are introduced to one of the two people involved in the accident, a young woman named Simar (Priyanka Chopra). A doctor informs her that she has only suffered minor injuries from the accident, but her husband Nikhil (Arjun Rampal) was not so lucky. Nikhil has major internal and external damage from both the fall and the shattered glass from the car's windscreen, but to make things worse he also has amnesia. Simar is determined that Nikhil will get better and resume his life, and immediately begins by bringing in the best surgeons to reconstruct his damaged leg and face, and then later helping him with the hospital therapy.

Although Nikhil is at first cautious and weary, Simar's obvious love and dedication wins him over. After six months of therapy he's released from the hospital and the couple return home. Simar insists that Nikhil continue with his life and encourages him to go back to work, though beforehand she warns him that there are both good and bad people all around, and it's up to him to decide whom to trust.

Once Nikhil meets up with his old friends and goes through his personal files, he finds evidence that all was not well in his previous life. After talking with long-time friend Tanya (Kim Sharma) Nikhil learns that on the night of the accident he'd called Tanya, rambling that he'd found "evidence" proving Simar's infidelity and that he was going to divorce her.

Now uncertain of Simar's true motives, Nikhil starts retracing his steps from the night of the accident, and learns that things are not quite what they appear.
