The movie is quite refreshing but it has a striking similarities with Nicolas Cage starer "Matchstick Men" maybe we can say Bluffmaster is inspired by this movie.
The movie begins with a film producer (Tinu Anand) taking an anonymous call on someone's lost mobile he found lying on the road. In the call, he is told to collect a huge sum of money from a garbage can. The money is presumed to be the ransom paid to the kidnapper who lost his mobile.
The producer tries his luck. He finds the money there. But then, the cops come. The head cop (Abhishek) begins planting more evidence at the 'crime site'. The producer begs and offers big bribe. The head cop relents. The bluffmaster has struck.
Meet Roy (Abhishek Bachchan), a street-savvy bluffmaster who knows many a trick in the con game. The only thing he doesn't bluff is his romance for Simi (Priyanka Chopra).
On his engagement day with Simi, Roy's reality is exposed in front of her entire family. The engagement is called off and Roy is left pining for Simi's love.
In the meantime, Roy meets another connie. This junior connie, name Dittu (Ritesh Deshmukh), tries unsuccessfully to bluff Roy. He later becomes Roy's chela.
While Roy is trying to regain Simi's love, he comes to know a shocking truth. He has brain tumor. His doctor, Dr. Bhalerao (Boman Irani), says he has just three months left to live.
When Roy tells Simi this truth, she thinks he is playing another one of his tricks to get her back. A serene and spurned Roy decides to live his remaining life to the fullest.
He wants to pull off one last big con on Chandru Parekh (Nana Patekar), who made Dittu's father a pauper after conning the old man. Dittu wants to even the score with Chandru by conning him in return.
Roy teaches Dittu the tricks of the game and the two manage to dupe Chandru of crores. But Chandru won't go down so easily. It's not the money, but his "image" that has been challenged.
As the climax draws closer, Chandru hits back. He abducts Simi and demands Roy to return the money to save the girl.
Roy, who knows his eventual fate is to die, faces Chandru's gun...What follows next will certainly take you by surprise.
