Before the situation gets out of hand, he fleeds the country. He reaches New York and visits the World Trade Center to meet a friend. Unfortunately, he is killed when the hijacked plane crashes into the tower he was in.
  • Rahul Bhide (Ankur Khanna) is a poor yet academically bright student. He is over the moon when he receives an offer to study at a prestigious university in the US.

Unfortunately, he was a passenger on the doomed plane and does not survive.
