Veer Kapoor Fardeen Khan is a struggling artist who dreams of breaking through with a rock group, but at the moment his finances are precarious. His only steady income is a monthly allowance of Rs 100,000 from his wealthy elder stepbrother, Dharam Kapoor Sanjay Dutt. To keep up appearances, Veer has told a lie—that Vidya Mugdha Godse is his wife—in order to justify the money he receives. This fragile arrangement forms the emotional pavement of his world, a web of small deceptions that holds him up as his ambitions flicker.
His best friend is Prem Chopra Ajay Devgn, a man who is married to Jhanvi Chopra / Kututu Bipasha Basu. Prem lives with his family, running a run-down gym, and he spends much of his time tinkering with cars. Together, Veer and Prem hatch a plan that could change their fortunes: they need Rs 500,000 to register Prem’s car for a high-stakes illegal race, a gamble that promises a prize of Rs 5,000,000 if they win. To get the money, they borrow from a local mute loan shark named Tobu Johnny Lever. Impressed by a car Prem designed, Tobu not only lends them Rs 500,000 but also bets Rs 500,000 of his own on Prem, a gesture that only tightens the knot of debt and pride around them.
The race ends in disaster for Prem, and the debt balloons to Rs 1,000,000, due within a week. In an attempt to mop up the fallout and keep Dharam from learning the truth, Prem and Veer decide to rent Veer’s bungalow to a local lottery winner, Raghuvandas Goverdhandas Vakawale—better known as Raghu Sanjay Mishra. Raghuvandas, or Raghu for short, pays an advance of Rs 250,000, and life in the house begins to buzz with the complications that come from mixing a lottery win, a false marriage, and competing pressures from the family.
Meanwhile, Dharam finds himself stranded at the Goa Airport while en route to Lesotho, determined to catch up with his younger brother. The arrival of Raghu as a tenant brings its own set of tensions, and Dharam ends up beating Raghu upon the new tenant’s arrival. To defuse the situation, Prem and Veer resort to a double lie: they claim Raghu is mad, and Raghu is then made to pretend that the two young men are fabricating the entire story. The balance of truth and fiction continues to tilt as Vidya has a quarrel with Veer and withdraws from him emotionally.
When Veer brings Dharam home, a cascade of mistaken identities follows. Dharam spots Jhanvi (the wife of Prem Chopra) and immediately takes her for Vidya. Later, Prem and Veer insist to Dharam that Vidya is actually Jhanvi, forcing Jhanvi to pretend to be Vidya and Vidya to pretend to be Jhanvi. The situation becomes even more tangled as Veer’s and Prem’s fear of debt compounds with Dharam’s concerns about his brother’s secret life. Dharam’s flight to Lesotho is delayed, and he decides to stay with his brother for the time being, creating an even stranger domestic orbit.
In a revealing moment, Prem notices Dharam’s Rolex wristwatch and resolves to pay Tobu by offering the watch as collateral. Dharam’s flirtations with Jhanvi (who is really Vidya) aggravate Prem, who feels more and more trapped by the debt and the deception. In a bid to settle the debt, Prem ends up offering Tobu the royal gift that Dharam had planned for the king of Lesotho—only to discover that the gift is not what it seems, but rather a container of pickles meant for the princess. The tension crescendos when Prem returns home to a distressed Jhanvi, who collapses and is rushed to the hospital by Prem. Dharam sees them together and slaps Prem in a moment of fierce protectiveness and anger.
The hospital scene reveals a deeper ache: doctors confirm that Jhanvi is pregnant. Veer is wracked with guilt, fearing the potential consequences for his brother and the family. He contemplates telling Dharam the truth, but before he can act, Dharam announces that his flight to Lesotho has been reserved for the near future. Tobu and his men crash the house, demanding repayment; Dharam lashes out, slapping Tobu and, in a surprising turn, breaking the loan shark’s muteness. Tobu reveals the extent of Veer’s and Prem’s debt and, in an unexpected gesture, decides to forgive the debt and return the items he had taken—items that Veer and Prem had stolen from Dharam.
As the revelations unfold, Raghu’s rent dispute resurfaces, Vidya’s father (Vidya’s father Govardhan Asrani) arrives, and Dharam’s temper heats up as he chases Prem through the house. The neighborhood becomes tense as Lesotho’s king’s men surround the property, turning the tension into a public confrontation. It is then revealed that Dharam had an affair with the princess, who is pregnant, and the king’s men insist that Dharam and the princess marry. In the end, the characters accept the arrangement, and a happy ending emerges from the chaos, closure arriving through forgiveness, reconciliation, and a new understanding of loyalty among family and friends.
This ensemble of deception, debt, mistaken identity, and reluctant truths unfolds with humor, warmth, and a touch of melodrama, staying true to its tonal mix while expanding the web of relationships that bind Veer, Dharam, Prem, Vidya, Jhanvi, Raghu, and the rest of the cast into a single, intertwined story.
