In this tropical paradise, they meet the quixotic Mr Khan (Paresh Rawal), who offers them a small fortune if they will agree to play a simple truth game.

All Vivaan and Siya have to do is answer eight questions honestly or complete simple tasks to significantly swell their bank balance.

Vivaan and Siya agree and they sail through the early questions but as the quizzing continues, the game becomes increasingly personal and uncomfortable, forcing the couple to reveal dark secrets that have remained hidden for years.

Released: January 4 (UK, selected cinemas, running time TBC)
