Sour and Sweet, हिन्दी: खट्टा मीठा) is a 2010 Indian Hindi-language political satire dark comedy film written and directed by Priyadarshan and produced by Dhilin Mehta and Twinkle Khanna under Shree Ashtavinayak Cine Vision Limited and Hari Om Entertainment.
Trisha (in her debut in Hindi cinema and the only Hindi film she has ever acted in), co-starred with Kumar, while Kulbhushan Kharbanda, Rajpal Yadav, Asrani, Johnny Lever, Aruna Irani, Urvashi Sharma, Makarand Deshpande, Jaideep Ahlawat, Manoj Joshi, Milind Gunaji, and Neeraj Vora feature in supporting roles.
To make matters worse, the new Municipal Commissioner turns out to be his ex-girlfriend, Gehna Ganpule, who now hates him due to his wayward ways.
His brothers-in-law Trigun Fatak, Suhas Vichare, and his elder brother Harish Tichkule were all responsible for a bridge collapse resulting in many fatalities and were helped by a politician named Sanjay Rana.
When he confronts his father Ramakant Tichkule as to how the marriage is finalized to an evil man without his knowledge, he reprimands Sachin, saying he has no right to say anything as he has no money to marry his sister off.
At the hospital, while Azad is dying in Sachin's arms, he reveals that while he was stealing the evidence, he saw Anjali being raped by Sanjay's friends, and it's not clear whether she was murdered by her rapists while she escaped or she committed suicide.
Vowing vengeance against Sanjay, Sachin decides to search for the documents at Azad's house but finds them missing, prompting him to enlist the help of his sidekick Rangeela in a ploy to smoke them out.
Sachin then argues back that his brothers decided to silence the journalists and the general public who'd bring out the truth by bribing and threatening them.
He further argues that while their husbands are still alive behind bars where the wives can see them, the people who died in the bridge collapse incident are gone forever, and nothing can be done to bring them back and he had to deal with the pain of losing Anjali the most, considering that his brothers-in-law had a hand in her death and were not reprimanded.
The house where Akshay Kumar's character and his family lived was filmed at a palace in Phaltan, which is the ancestral home of Saibai, the first wife of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj.
