Transcription
Plot
Badal (Bobby Deol) is a naive but intelligent young man who comes from a small village to the big city to attend college. He is introduced to city life by his former villager Damru (Harish Patel), who calls himself Danny. In college, he meets pretty and precocious Tina Oberoi (Twinkle Khanna) and, after a few misunderstandings and misadventures, they fall in love.
This relationship is not approved of by Tina's wealthy widower step-father Dinesh Oberoi (Raj Babbar), who hopes to take all her wealth. He is waiting for Tina To turn eighteen. His friend (Bharat Kapoor) wants his son to marry Tina and divide the whole wealth. Once his son finds out about love of Tina and Badal, he complains to the college principal (Vijay Kashyap), that Badal has been responsible for sexually harassing a girl at the college one night, but Tina testifies in favour of Badal and insists he's innocent. Dinesh then asks a corrupt cop, Negi (Danny Denzongpa), the city's assistant commissioner of police, for assistance.
Negi arrests Badal on trumped-up charges and imprisons him. Badal's widowed dad Bhairon (Mukesh Khanna) comes to the big city to try to make sense of why Badal is in prison. Dinesh gives a contract to Negi to have Badal killed. Negi agrees and hires a gang of ruthless outlaws to hunt and kill Badal. The lovebirds run away to Badal's village. However, Negi reaches there and threatens the villagers. To save the villagers, Badal gives Tina sleeping pills by lying to her that both of them are committing suicide. He then surrenders himself to Negi.
When Tina wakes up, she finds herself in the custody of her step-father who tries to kill her by giving her poison, but her friend tells her the true intention of Dinesh who never wanted Tina to marry his son. She is shocked to learn the truth and runs in a car.
By this time, Badal and Negi had a face off where Negi is killed (as shown) by Badal and now he comes to save Tina from Dinesh who is behind her to kill him. Both of them are fighting on the hill where Tina pleads Badal not to kill Dinesh as she considers him her father.
However, Negi (who is revealed to still be alive) again comes to kill Badal but Dinesh protects Badal this time and Negi is finally killed, but by Bhairon and two others. At last, Tina and Badal unite with the dying Dinesh, who finally approves their match and apologises for his deeds.

Reception
Barsaat was a "hugely-anticipated film".[7] Writing for Rediff.com, Sukanya Verma called it "not a great movie" but was appreciative of Santosh Sivan's cinematography, especially during the song "Nahi Yeh Ho Nahi Sakta", noting that the "freshness enveloping Sivan’s visuals in the song ... choreographed by Farah Khan, continues to satisfy" and "I love the luminously lit frames, the use of fresh paint and mirrors and a gorgeous play of pristine white and bright yellow."[9] A review in India Today noted that the film lacked a script and is "yet another collection of cliches". It found the songs "mediocre" and concluded with "[t]he best part is that two stars are born".[10]
