This story takes place in the late 1980s. Sapna Didi's real name was Ashraf. She wanted to kill underworld don Dawood Ibrahim. In fact, Dawood Ibrahim had Ashraf, also known as Sapna Didi's husband, murdered.

 

 

In this situation, Sapna's sole purpose in life was to eliminate Dawood Ibrahim. To achieve this, she enlists the help of Hussain Ustra. Hussain also had a rivalry with Dawood Ibrahim. In such a situation, Sapna and Hussain Ustra work together. Hussain Ustra teaches Sapna how to kill a man.

 

 

Damaged Dawood's work

Sapna Didi quietly challenged Dawood Ibrahim's dark empire. She formed her own gang, which helped her fight against Dawood. Sapna Didi shut down D Company's gambling dens, dance bars, and many other nefarious activities in Mumbai. In the 1990s, she plotted to assassinate Dawood Ibrahim during an India-Pakistan cricket match in Sharjah. However, Sapna Didi's plan was leaked, and she was unable to kill Dawood.

 

 

Dawood's men brutally beat Sapna Didi

According to media reports, in 1994, Dawood Ibrahim's henchmen attacked Sapna Didi, stabbing her 22 times. Sapna Didi's story ended there. The film "O Romeo" also depicted a love story between Sapna and Hussain Ustra. Hussain Ustra's family has expressed objections to this.

 

 

Hussain Ustra's family had objected to the film "O Romeo."

The film "O Romeo" has been released, but controversy erupted before its release. When the song "Hum To Tere Hi Liye" from "O Romeo" was released, it depicted a romance between Sapna (Tripti Dimri) and Hussain Ustra (Shahid Kapoor). Hussain Ustra's family objected to this. In a media interview, Hussain Ustra's daughter said, "The story shown in the film is false.

 

 

My father trained Sapna Didi. She was like a sister to him. She would come to our house and our office. Sapna Didi had no one. When her husband was murdered, she was alone. She had no children. She went everywhere seeking help. My father helped her. They worked together against criminals. Their methods were wrong, but this also happened 28 years ago. The film tarnishes her image."
