Woodstock Villa is a 2008 Indian Hindi-language neo-noir mystery thriller film directed by Hansal Mehta and jointly produced by Sanjay Gupta and Ekta Kapoor. Loosely based on the 2000 Japanese film Chaos,[4] it features Sikandar Kher and Neha Oberoi in their debut roles[5] alongside Arbaaz Khan, Shakti Kapoor, Gulshan Grover and Sachin Khedekar. Sanjay Dutt makes a guest appearance in a song sequence.[6] The soundtrack was composed by Anu Malik. It was filmed in Mumbai and Mauritius. The film follows an unemployed man who helps a woman plot her own abduction in order to test her husband's love and dedication towards her.[7]

The film, released in India on 30 May 2008, underperformed at the box office.[8] Kher's performance found praise, while the song placement was criticized.[9]
