What happens

Miss 420 is a 1998 Indian Hindi-language action thriller film directed by Akashdeep Sabir and produced by Ganesh Jain and Ratan Jain under the Venus Records & Tapes banner. The film stars Sheeba Akashdeep in the title role alongside rapper Baba Sehgal in his acting debut. Shakti Kapoor, Aashif Sheikh, Mohan Joshi and Tinnu Anand play key supporting roles in the film. The soundtrack of the movie was composed by Anu Malik. Shot and completed in 1993, the film was initially scheduled for a release in January 1994. However, the release was delayed for several years and it was eventually released in cinema halls four years later on January 23, 1998. The film featured songs "Aaja Meri Gaadi Me Baith Ja" and "Memsaab O Memsaab" that became chartbusters, but the film was a disaster at the box office, grossing worldwide ₹92.77 lakh against a budget of ₹1.25 crore.
