Dostana (transl. Friendship) is a 2008 Indian Hindi-language romantic comedy film directed by Tarun Mansukhani and produced by Dharma Productions. The film stars Abhishek Bachchan, John Abraham and Priyanka Chopra in lead roles and tells the story of two men who pretend to be gay to share an apartment with a girl; eventually, both fall in love with her.
