Sameer and Kunal meet at a friend’s party after a night filled with adventures and encounters with women. Their meeting sets the stage for an unexpected friendship that will take numerous twists and turns.

While searching for rental properties, Sameer and Kunal serendipitously find themselves vying for the same apartment. However, Mrs. Melwani, the owner, reveals it is reserved for her niece, Neha, causing frustration for both men.

Amidst their apartment troubles, Sameer suggests a drastic plan: they should pose as a couple to secure the apartment. Kunal, initially hesitant, agrees out of necessity, enabling their ruse to succeed.

As they settle into their new apartment, both Sameer and Kunal fall for Neha, complicating their relationship. Their friendship takes a chaotic turn as they navigate the feelings of jealousy and attraction towards her.

To maintain their deception, Sameer and Kunal fabricate stories about their relationship. Sameer adopts a more emotional tone while Kunal attempts to portray masculinity, leading to humorous and awkward situations.

The pair consider applying for a domestic partnership to expedite Kunal’s citizenship. However, this innocent move inadvertently stirs complications as Sameer’s conservative mother receives their approval letter, raising her suspicions.

After M discovers the truth about Sameer and Kunal’s fake relationship, Neha is left heartbroken and confused by the revelations. She seeks comfort from Rani, who is learning to accept her son’s identity amid the chaos.

In a bid to win back Neha's affections, Sameer and Kunal plot against Abhimanyu, who has started to show interest in her. Their rivalry leads to comedic misadventures and heartfelt confessions of their feelings.

Abhimanyu proposes to Neha, sparking insecurities in both Veer and Neha. Consequently, the relationship becomes strained, ultimately resulting in Neha's decision to break up with Abhimanyu.

Months later, Sameer and Kunal realize the void left by Neha after their manipulations. They set out to find her, confronting the consequences of their actions along the way.

An emotional encounter at a fashion show leads to Sameer and Kunal delivering a public apology to Neha. The crowd rallies around them, highlighting the sincerity of their feelings and the bond they share.
