Is infidelity ever excusable? That is the question raised in 'Bewafaa'. Kareena Kapoor plays Anjali, the young, vibrant daughter of an Indian father and Canadian mother who moves to New Delhi to marry her older brother-in-law Aditya following the death of her sister Aarti. At the time she thinks she is doing the right thing as she can help raise her two nieces however in doing so she leaves behind her first love Raja, played by Akshay Kumar.

Will she be able to live with the personal sacrifices she has made for the good of others or will her decision come back to haunt her?
