Featuring Bollywood stars Shilpa Shetty, Manoj Bbajpai and Shamita Shetty in the three central characters Fareb is an emotional thriller tells the story of a man accused of murdering the woman who seduced him.

Aditya (Manoj) is the creative director of an advertising company. He is a happily married man with a beautiful and caring wife Neha (Shilpa) and a kid.

Aditya's love and loyalty to his wife is tested with the coming of sensuous Ria (Shamita) who is the wife of one of the clients of Aditya's ad agency. Ria gets drawn towards Aditya and starts making subtle passes at him.

Her husband resting soundly in his grave, Ria is a desperate woman who can go to any lengths to get the man she wants. And when her temptations become hard to resist for Aditya, the so-far loyal husband, being a man, gives in to the temptation, but also withdraws at the right time.

This one sided act of infidelity by Aditya becomes poison for his marriage and creates a rift between him and Neha. But then, the worst happens. Ria is killed. The cops arrest Aditya for her murder. And there is also a blackmailer who threatens to expose Aditya's fling with Ria.

How will Aditya get out of this mire? Who is the killer of Ria? Who is the blackmailer? These questions form the crux of the remaining story.

The film is a LFD release.
