Cigarette Ki Tarah

Cigarette Ki Tarah is a 2012 Indian Hindi-language romantic thriller film directed by Akashaditya Lama, featuring Bhoop Yaduvanshi, Prashant Narayanan, Madhurima Tuli and Sudesh Berry. The film was produced under the banner of P. Y. Films Pvt. Ltd. While the music was composed by Sudeep Banerjee, Kavita Seth, Ankur Mishra and Viraj Sawant, the lyrics have been written by Ajay Jhingran, Kaushal Kishore and Dev Shukla. Vivek Yadav and Longines Fernandes were the choreographers.

A dispute between the director and producers over the film's editing led to a lawsuit in the Mumbai High Court, and eventually to what the director called a "compromise" and an "edited version that did not meet my creative vision".

Plot
A guy falls in love blindly with a young beautiful girl. This blind love leads him into deep trouble, and further separates him from other people like one man versus the entire world. In these dark situations, where one surely gives up on everything, he doesn't, and thus keeps on believing and trusting on his blind love, which eventually shows him all the ways to be out from all the difficulties.

Reception
