Plot
Gopal lives with his wife Ekta, who is addicted to watching Indian dramas and soap operas. He too lives with his sister Esha and Ekta's quiet brother, his brother in law Fortunate. Fortunate is in adore with a hard of hearing young lady named Daisy. Examining Officer Madhav, Esha's boyfriend, who accepts that Gopal's company, Brilliant Fisheries, furtively does drug-smuggling, does not get along with Gopal.

One night, whereas returning from his office, Gopal spares an appealing youthful lady named Meera from a few ghastly goons. Due to circumstances, both of them choose to remain the night at Gopal's friend's yacht. When he arrives domestic the following day, an over-suspicious Ekta suspects Gopal of being a tease around with his female representatives and having an issue with his secretary. Knowing how troublesome it is to persuade her with the truth, he concocts a story around investing the night with a invented companion named Anthony Gonsalves. Ekta gets to be suspicious and does not accept his story as she knows that he never had a companion by that title, and consequently, she chooses to type in to Anthony to visit her and to affirm Gopal was telling the truth. Afterward, Gopal meets Laxman Prasad, who has come to meet for a position in his office. He is Meera's boyfriend, which is not known to Gopal. Gopal inquires him to imagine to be Anthony, and meet and persuade Ekta that he was without a doubt telling the truth, in return for a work. Laxman concurs to do so, and everything goes agreeing to arrange until the address on which Ekta had composed a letter to Anthony as well as his title turns out to be genuine. The genuine Anthony appears up at Gopal's house but he is frightened off in a comical way by Gopal, Fortunate and Laxman. Gopal cautions the genuine Anthony not to appear up around his home ever again.

Meanwhile, Gopal finds out that a dead body was found at the same area where he spared Meera from the goons. Madhav finds out that Gopal was lost from his domestic that exceptionally night and that the dead individual was Gopal's colleague whom he had undermined to murder over a spat. Madhav before long finds out that Laxman is not the genuine Anthony and captures him. He gives Gopal a three-day due date to get the young lady to the police station to demonstrate that Gopal had been with her and did not kill his worker. After three days and a parcel of endeavors, they still are not able to discover the young lady. In freeze, Laxman and Fortunate enlist a lady called Munni, who needs cash to get her boyfriend Vasooli out of imprison, but Munni is seized by the killer. Incapable to demonstrate his guiltlessness, Gopal is captured. Fortunate and Laxman are chased by the cops but they are protected by Meera. Meera questions Laxman almost his association in a few shady exercises. Laxman at that point uncovers that he had to cover up that night's occurrence for Gopal. Be that as it may Meera uncovers that the young lady whom Gopal spared that night is none other than her. Laxman is stunned and distressed over this news as he accepts that Gopal and her are having an issue behind his back but Meera gets irate on Laxman for not trusting her. He apologizes and the trio go to the police station. Be that as it may, Vasooli finds out that Munni has been captured and seizes Meera as use in anger.

Gopal is afterward safeguarded out by Sawant, who is going along with him to the Lover's Point, with Madhav, Esha, Fortunate and Laxman taking after them in interest, and Ekta, Vasooli and Meera arriving afterward. Munni is found tied up in the back of the murderer's jeep and is liberated by the bunch. Gopal learns that this was a plot concocted by Sawant to outline him for the kill, as his illicit medicate exchange was around to be uncovered, affirming Madhav's doubts. The show develops, as everybody endeavors suicide (but Madhav and Fortunate), much to Sawant's outrage, until he is driven insane from this and tries to slaughter himself.

Ekta and Gopal get back together, Madhav and Gopal moreover shake hands in the conclusion. Fortunate, in the interim, weds the girl of the president of Gopal's company, who happens to be Daisy, and gets to be the unused boss, giving a stun to the others. Gopal and Laxman are pronounced the junior bosses, whereas Madhav is announced a 24-hour watch for Lucky.
