This
film revolves around Karan Kapoor (Saif Ali Khan) who works as a
cartoonist with one of India's leading newspapers.
His
daily column comes under the title of Hum Tum (meaning Me
and You).
The
concept of his cartoon characters bares no resemblance to any countries,
religions or political borders - its simply Hum Tum.

Rani Mukerjee is Rhea in
Hum Tum
|
There
is a woman in Karan's life. Her name is Rhea (Rani Mukerjee). Both
have been meeting on a regular basis at various stages in their
lives. But every meeting has ended on a bad note.
Karan's
first incident started with Rhea in Amsterdam. They disagreed on
everything. So to put things right, Karan innocently kissed her...
to confirm their friendship.
No
prizes for guessing how that meeting ended聟whammm聟It's
then that Karan realised Rhea's unstable nature - and that she had
a heavy hand!
Six
months flew past and once again these two characters meet in New
York.
Well聟let's
just say, Rhea hadn't forgotten the Amsterdam kiss and decides to
spill the beans to Karan's steady girlfriend. Another relationship
down the drain!
It's
been 10 years since their first encounter. Once again Rhea and Karan
become friends despite their differences.
Rhea
has gone through some personal tragedies in her life, lots of ups
and downs but Karan has always been there for her.
During
this time she has moved all over the place, from Mumbai to Paris
to New York and back to Mumbai.
Karan
even tried fixing her up with a friend of his - with her mothers
permission of course - but as with everything else, this didn't
quite work out either.
As
luck would have it, Karan's career as a cartoonist was soaring and
so one thing led to another and Rhea took off once again on a bad
terms.
