Amar Ranawat sits alone on the side of a lake and remembers the 5 years he spent with Lekha. Amar ponders whether it is better to have loved and lost, or never to have loved in the first place. Amar (Himanshu Malik) was rich, stubborn, and serious. He meets Lekha Khorzuvekar (Mallika Sherawat) in a shop. Amar wanted to buy only the bottoms of a pajama set and was arguing with the store, who would only sell the whole set. The salesman argues that if he sells the bottom to Amar, the top would be useless for the shop. The matter is escalated all the way to the owner of the shop, who orders not to sell the bottom alone to Amar. Lekha steps in and offers to buy the top, so Amar can have the bottoms. But then they argue over the design (Lekha wanted colorful checks, while Amar wanted stripes), the color of the night suit, and even how to split the cost as Lekha argues that bottoms are worth more than the top. She even argues that the plain design they selected is costing a full Rs 60 more than the checks design and says that for the poor, Rs 60 is a lot. The shop offers to reduce the price from Rs 440 to Rs 415 and Lekha agrees to pay Rs 200, and Amar has to fork out Rs 215. While Lekha is poor, the daughter of chicken farmer, she is a happy, frank, and straightforward girl. Their tastes don't match (She likes classical music, and he is into Go-Karting) and Lekha is very value conscious, while for Amar, money means nothing. She calls him Sethji. Amar and Lekha study in the same college in Pune. They spend time together and start dating as they are also physically attracted to each other. They finally fall in love. They start kissing regularly (most of their make-out sessions take place by the side of a lake), but Lekha wants to wait till after marriage to get to 2nd and 3rd base. Lekha tries to explain while the society considers a man to be a stud, but a woman having extra-marital sex is considered to be of loose morals. Amar wants to use his passion for Go-Karting to become a professional race car driver, but his father is not at all supportive of Amar's plans. Amar calls his own father "sir", who wants him to do an MBA after college. Lekha and Amar agree to focus on their upcoming exams and decide not to meet other so regularly. After the exams, Amar cannot take the separation and proposes to Lekha after she declares that she is going home for a few months. Amar goes with Lekha to her village. Her father Ulhas (Mahmud Babai) befriends Amar and accepts the marriage. Ulhas celebrates the occasion by sharing a drink with Amar. But Ulhas has to hide the booze in the bathroom as Lekha does not approve of Ulhas's drinking. However, Amar's father Prithviraj (Shivaji Satham) wants him to complete his studies first before getting married. Amar takes Lekha to meet his parents. While Ulhas was warm and inviting, Amar's parents are cold and distanced. They are not impressed that Lekha's father is a chicken farmer with 5000 chickens. Amar breaks contact with his father & Mother Sobha and marries Lekha. Lekha thinks Amar is using her to stand up to his father. But Amar says he only loves Lekha. Amar's father cuts him off from his inheritance. Amar does not want money from his father to complete his MBA, but no bank would give him a loan unless it is co-signed by his father. Lekha decides to give up her singing career to support Amar financially while he completes his MBA. She asks her father for a low-key wedding and to save every penny possible for her future life. Ulhas is supportive. He spends Rs 25,000 on the wedding and gives Rs 1.25 Lakhs to Lekha as a wedding gift. But Ulhas is not happy as he wanted the wedding to be performed with the proper rituals and by completing his obligations to society. When the village comes to know, they all contribute their time and labor to reduce the expense of the wedding. Their friends send them to their honeymoon in Himanchal. Amar is shy, so Lekha buys her own condoms for their first night. The married couple move into their new little home at a Chawl and spend days of happiness and good times. Amar's mother Shobha accepts Lekha as her daughter in law and gives her some jewels. Shobha is also a fan of RD Burman just as Lekha is. Shobha invites Amar and Lekha to Amar's dad 60th Birthday. Lekha convinces Amar to attend his dad's Birthday party, but he flatly refuses. When Lekha insists, this leads to their first fight. Amar is livid with Lekha for contacting his parents and threatens her to remain out of his life with his parents. Finally, Amar completes his education and gets a job, and they move into a new, bigger house. But soon, Lekha starts complaining about their sexless life as Amar gets busy with his job and career. Amar and Lekha decide to have a kid. But they are unable to conceive, and medical reports indicate Lekha has leukemia. The doctor advises Amar not to divulge this to Lekha and to be as normal as possible. Amar informs Ulhas, who is heartbroken. Amar takes a loan of Rs 5 Lakhs from his father to keep Lekha happy in her final days. But Lekha doesn't want to spend money in London or Paris which Amar proposed. They go to Kerala instead. Lekha reveals that she knows the truth. Amar consults a US specialist, who is also unable to help them. He gives some medications to reduce the pain. In the end Lekha wants to be cremated in an electrical furnace, to be environmentally conscious even in her death. She wants Amar to remarry & eventually Lekha dies. Amar's father apologizes to Amar and invites him back home.

When Shekhar accidentally kills Amar, guilt drives him to Canada to seek forgiveness from Amar`s family. He meets Amar`s fiancee, Piya, and offers help for her dying business. In the process, he secretly falls in love with her.

Shekhar lives in Mumbai with his friend Bosco, who had also traveled from Canada to be with him. Shekhar had just been awarded with a business recognition at an industry forum. This is where Shekhar runs into Amar from Canada's Shah industries. Amar reveals that he is going to marry his fiance in Canada the following week. Amar was in India to shop for a wedding dress for Pia, who wanted to get married in traditional Indian attire. Amar invites Shekhar to come to Canada and join Shah industries, but Shekhar politely declines and says that he is happy in Mumbai. On his way to the airport, Amar's cab breaks down. He is told by the driver to get a different taxi as Amar is getting late for his flight. Since the airport was only 1 Km away, Amar decides to walk, while talking on the phone with Pia, his fiance. At the same time, Shekhar was returning from the party with Bosco. Shekhar swerves the car to avoid hitting a girl who suddenly jumped in front of the car, but in doing so, he rams straight into Amar, who was walking on the pedestrian footpath. Amar dies on the spot. Bosco makes Shekhar leave the accident site before the police arrives, even though Shekhar sees Amar's phone on the ground and picks it up to hear Pia narrating a romantic poem, symbolizing their love. Bosco removes all evidence linking Shekhar to the accident. After Amar Shah's (Raqesh Vashisth) accidental death in India, Canada-based Shah Industries is on the verge of collapse. Pia (Sandali Sinha), Amar's fiance and a Managing Director of Shah Industries, is devastated. The company is under huge amount of debt, and the assets of the company are not even enough to pay off half the amount. Girdhari (Vikram Gokhale), his dad, is in shock and unresponsive towards others while Amar's sister Milli (Amrita Prakash) and grandmother (Dina Pathak) are in mourning. Inspector D'Mello (Manoj Pahwa) who is investigating the case is determined to find the person responsible for the accident despite his superiors' indifference towards the case. Months after Amar's death, the highly respected and talented business worker Shekhar Malhotra (Priyanshu Chatterjee) comes to Canada and meets Bosco. Shekhar says that he wants to apologize to Amar's family and is willing to undergo any punishment that the family deems appropriate. Shekhar tells Girdhar that he met Amar in Mumbai and says that it was his car that killed Amar. Girdhar is near catatonic and does not react. Pia realizes that she needs an Operations Head to make sure that the company is functioning again and restores faith in the lenders. Shekhar meets Pia and says that he met Amar in Mumbai, who offered him a job in Shah industries in Canada. Shekhar offers to re-build and restore Shah Industries without any compensation, stating Amar met him in India and offered him a job before his death. He is given the chance and goes about the uphill task of making the company viable again. Gradually, Shekhar heals the gaping wound left in the Shah family by Amar's death and they come to accept him as one of the family while he falls in love with Pia. What they don't know - except for Bosco (Rajesh Khera), Shekhar's friend in Canada - is that it was Shekhar's jeep that accidentally had hit Amar after he swerved to avoid hitting an innocent girl who had walked into the road, causing his death. Ridden by guilt Shekhar came to Canada to confess, ask for forgiveness, and do whatever he can for the family. Abhigyan (Himanshu Malik) is a wealthy Canadian industrialist who meets Pia and realizes that she is the right woman for him. He is considering proposing to Pia and helping to rebuild Shah Industries. But Pia has fallen in love with Shekhar. Eventually, a conflict arises between Pia and Shekhar regarding a proposition made by Abhi to take over Shah Industries. Shekhar realizes that Pia does not need his help anymore and decides to return to India. Pia stops Shekhar while he boards his flight and confesses her feelings for him. Shekhar denies his feelings and boards the plane. Devastated, Pia goes home and gets engaged to Abhi. At the airport arrives inspector D'Mello (Manoj Pahwa), from India in search of the person who killed Amar, and arrests Shekhar. They wait, with Bosco (Rajesh Khera), to board the next flight to India. Shekhar calls Pia and tells her how much he loves her and confesses that it was he who hit her fiance. Being drunk, Shekhar meets with an accident. Pia feels guilty about falling for the man who caused Amar's death and confesses it to Girdhari, who surprises her by speaking for the first time after his son's death. He tells her that Shekhar had told him the truth when he first visited them, and he believes Shekhar. Amar's family then makes Pia realize how much Shekhar has done for the family and that he is like Amar to them. Bosco informs them about Shekhar's accident. Abhi tells a skeptical Pia to go back to Shekhar as he is her true love. Meanwhile, D'Mello who is in the hospital with everyone, understands that the family needs Shekhar more than the law does and simply closes the case and leave. Shekhar recovers and unites with Pia while Abhi is left devastated and is comforted by his uncle.
