As the title suggests, Footpath is about a group of street kids who share a strong bond of friendship. They were raised on the streets of India and life has certainly not been easy. Unfortunately their daily struggles lead them onto a dark and dangerous path full of drugs and crime. The only positive influence in their lives is the sister (Bipasha Basu) of one of the boys (Rahul Dev), whose upbringing has been more sheltered. Although she is treated like one of the lads, she tries her best to stay far away from the seedy world they have entered. Eventually another one of the boys (Aftab Shivdasani), who is close to Bipasha, tries his best to get the group back on the straight and narrow, however they have become so deeply involved in the lifestyle that the task becomes mission impossible.
But faith has something else in store for him. Even after hiding for 12 years in recluse, police succeeds in tracing him and force him into a mission which is full of betrayal, hate and falsehood against his own childhood friends, a dirty game in which life and childhood love is at stake. Whether Arjun succeeds or fails in this game forms the curx of the film FOOTPATH.
Although Vikram Bhatt is slightly inconsistent with delivering hits, lets hope this one proves another winner for Bollywood.
