Plot

[edit]

Raj, a modern guy, and Soham, a simpleton, are two friends who share an apartment. Soham has loved Purva since his college days but has never proposed to her. Raj comes across Purva and falls in love with her, unaware that she is the same girl. Raj tells Soham that Purva is a flirt and he should distance himself from her, but Soham comes to know about Raj's plans, and they both decide to find out whether Purva has feelings for either of them. Madhav Malvankar (Mama), a middle-aged, much-married man, also falls in love with Purva. The three guys are facing competition among themselves to know about Purva's feelings, but the worst happens when a millionaire Dhiru arrives, whom Purva has known for a long time.
