'''''Ghajini''''' is actually the name of two indian films released on 2005 and 2008 in Tamil and Hindi respectively, both directed by AR Murugadoss, with the same general plot and sharing at least one actor. This page will be about the 2008 Hindi version, as it is the most well known due to be starred by [[Aamir Khan]] and having received a number of accolades.
 
Sanjay Singhania (Aamir Khan), is a man who suffers offrom anterograde amnesia, and keeps going thorough life by using a system pfof photos and tattoos. He keeps this to remind himself of his mission: find and kill the ones who murdered his girlfriend Kalpana (Asin). He is specially focused on find Ghajini Dharmatma (Pradeep Rawat), as he was the direct responsible offor both her murder and Sanjay's condition. So far, he has managed to find and kill almost everyone else involved onin said crime.
 
Sanjay's mission, however, gets complicated by, a) a medical student named Sunita (Jiah Khan), who has decided to use Sanjay's medical case for heher class project and ends getting involved into more than she expected, and b) the titular Ghajini, actually a fearsome criminal lord who, after realizing that someone is killing his men and targeting him, decides to find the killer and giving him a lesson.
 
Amid this plot, we are told the incredibly sweet and hilarious love story between Sanjay and Kalpana, in a plot that seems ripped from veryevery [[Mistaken Identity]] [[Rom Com]].
