Inspired from Mel Smith's "High Heels Low Lives", Paisa Vasool is Manisha Koirala's debut venture as a producer. Termed as a fun-thriller, the film takes a look at the lives of two women who chance upon a heist.

Sushmita Sen plays the character named Baby, who migrates from Delhi to Mumbai for her sheer desire of becoming a big-time actress. But height plays a major deterrent, confining her acting career only to item numbers (as she is taller to most of the heroes).

Manisha Koirala plays Maria, who has run away from her cruel husband in a small town and earns her bread by running a bakery in Bandra.

She also inherits an ancestral bungalow but the real estate mafia and the area goons have made her life a living hell.

The two women meet by chance and start sharing their lives and also a room in the bungalow. They are ambitious and desperately dreaming of making a lot money and short cut to a better life. But is there a short cut to success? Well! a few vouch for it.

In a strange twist of events, the two women stumble upon a robbery. They impulsively decide to blackmail the crook into sharing the loot with them. But this scheme goes busted.

What starts off as a prank soon turns into a dangerous game leading to murders and confusion. Now Maria and Baby swear to turn the tables and plot revenge with the crooks. How they do it forms the rest of the story.

Sushant Singh plays the guy next door who runs an STD phone booth. Makrand Deshpande, Tinu Anand, Kunal Vijaykar, Vijay Patkar and Rakhi Sawant form the remaining supporting cast.

Written and directed by newcomer Srinivas, the movie has music by Bapi-Tutul and lyrics by Sandeep Nath. Laced with whacky humour, Paisa Vasool appears to be a fair entertainer with the requisite dose of masala.
