India based Shomu/Som (Sanjay Suri) and his wife Geetu (Divya Dutta) are a happily married couple with two children. Shomu decides to travel to Britain for business purposes, as well as to meet his childhood friend, Ravi Kapoor (Aashish Chaudhary). Ravi believes that Geetu and Som, who got married right out of college, are the perfect married couple. Shomu is in London for a business order and if he gets it, he plans to put another ball bearing factory in India, and upgrade to a new car for Geetu. Shomu gets the order within the first 9 minutes of the meeting, and he was expecting that it would take him 9 days to close the deal. Ravi runs a recording label and launches new musical talent in the industry. But after they become successful, the musicians (especially female ones) take advantage of Ravi's niceness to get released from his contract and sign a fat one with any competitor. Ravi is good friends with Tara (Mandira Bedi). Tara says that Ravi needs a girl who loves him for who he is, and not his status as the MD of a music label. Shomu was smart in college but finds Ravi much ahead in life. Ravi is a MD, drives a Mercedes convertible. Ravi insists that Shomu will stay with him in his house, and not at a hotel. So, Shomu brags about how big his business is and says that his factories make ball bearings for airplanes (when he actually supplies cycle manufacturers). Ravi invites Shomu for auditions for a new female singer. Shomu finds himself getting close to single women and realizes that he is now ready for an extra-marital affair. His friend, Ravi Kapoor, on the contrary believes that Shomu is the luckiest man on earth, as he is in love with his wife, and their marriage is rock steady. But Shomu is kind of annoyed at his shrill, nagging, over-bearing and annoying wife (who is actually very sweet and caring). Geetu is a bit clingy, and Shomu feels suffocated with her. Geetu will call Shomu for trivial issues such as a maid not coming to work for 4 days, and the milkman forgetting to deliver milk. Shomu is introduced to Tara and instantly falls in love. Meanwhile Ravi wants to live Shomu's seemingly perfect life. Shomu can't take it anymore and tells Ravi how miserable he actually is in a marriage. Geetu makes Shomu pick all the bags during shopping trips, sleeps till late while Shomu makes tea and breakfast, Shomu is tormented by his kids who only treat him like a horse, even the dogs (who came in dowry with Geetu) chew up his ties and shoes. Shomu says that real life is different and not like in the movies. Ravi believes that Shomu is only saying these things to keep him away from marital bliss. Ravi is adamant that he wants to get married. Unfortunately, most of the women he knows are engaged, pregnant, married or they simply reject him as they were only nice to him due to his music label. Tara, Ravi and Shomu spend a lot of time together and Shomu is sure that he wants to be with Tara. In the meantime, Ravi meets a waitress named Menaka Choudhary (Samita Bangargi) (she refuses a large tip from Ravi and impresses him). Menaka also moonlights as a singer at a local night club and Ravi decides to launch her as the next star in his music label firm. Ravi asks Shomu to approach Menaka and convince her for the gig. Menaka auditions, but Ravi is super nervous, as he has already blown it with 2 other women in the past and doesn't want to mess up this time. Shomu approaches Menaka and offers her a contract with Ravi's Fuel Music Company. Slowly Ravi and Menaka start to fall in love. Shomu tells Tara that his wife has selective amnesia (Due to a car accident) and has no love life. All this is done by Shomu to gain Tara's sympathy. Tara starts soft dating Shomu. Not trusting her husband, Geetu asks a U.K. based friend to check up on him. The friend (who is a neighbor of Tara and has seen Shomu come to her place several times in the last few days) reports back that Shomu is involved with a woman named Tara. Geetu decides to go to Britain as well and catch Shomu red-handed. When Tara comes to know what Shomu has been doing, she punches Shomu in the nose. Tara explains to Geetu that every male has a roving eye, and she should not try and control Shomu as much. Shomu acknowledges his mistake as well and repents in front of Ravi. Shomu and Geetu meet and make up. Ravi goes out on a date with Menaka, but she doesn't know she is on a date with Ravi. Ravi is trying to say that the music contract was a way for him to get close to Menaka. But she misunderstands Ravi, and thinks he is propositioning her for sex. Ravi gets slapped as Menaka leaves. Ravi is mad at Shomu for misguiding him. He goes to Tara and cries. Ravi proposes to Tara. Shomu goes back to Menaka to explain things to her and tells her that Ravi really loves her. At the wedding, the bride is under cover. Turns out Shomu had dressed Menaka as the bride and not Tara. Ravi is happy.
