Is Raat Ki Subah Nahin (transl. No End to This Night) is a 1996 Indian Hindi-language thriller film directed by Sudhir Mishra. The film stars Tara Deshpande and Nirmal Pandey, with the entire plot taking place over a single night. The film is based on a story written by Sudhir Mishra's brother, Sudhanshu Mishra, who died in 1995.[1][2]

In 2011, Sudir Mishra launched a spiritual sequel to Is Raat Ki Subah Nahin, titled Yeh Saali Zindagi, with Arunoday Singh, Irrfan Khan and Chitrangada Singh.[3][4]

Plot

[edit]

An advertising executive, Aditya has a beautiful wife, Pooja and a beautiful mistress, Malvika. This secret affair is the catalyst for much of the plot. Adi gets into a scuffle with a bunch of gangsters led by Ramanbhai,. To add to the tension, Ramanbhai is under duress because his colleague, Vilas Pandey is after his life.

A small-scale gang war erupts in the city: A police Inspector Patankar is changing sides faster than a chameleon, a rival gang lord Prafulla Kalia is offering deals and — in the middle of all this — Aditya finds himself stuck. A fast-paced sequence of events happen in the span of one single night.
