Overview

"Housefull" is a comedy film that follows the life of Aarush, a man plagued by bad luck whose sole dream is to find his true love, who he believes will be his good luck charm.

Aarush is deemed a jinx by his friends and colleagues, leading him to seek a fresh start with his best friend Bob in England. Bob, who lives with his wife Hetal, is estranged from her family due to their marriage. Despite Aarush's surprise visit causing chaos, Hetal accepts him and he soon marries Devika, her boss's daughter. However, Aarush's bad luck strikes again as Devika confesses her love for someone else on their wedding night, leading to their separation. Aarush then meets Sandy and falls in love with her. The story takes a hilarious turn as Aarush, Sandy, Bob, and Hetal get entangled in a series of lies while trying to introduce their families to their respective partners, all while Aarush's troubled past looms over his plans to marry Sandy.
