There is no end in sight to the woes of Veer and Prem, played by Fardeen Khan and Ajay Devgan. Veer, a wannabe rockstar, and Prem, a car aficionado, are good at one thing - cooking up lies and fooling other people to cover up their own truth.
Veer has been footing the bills of his luxurious life in Goa besides helping the cash-strapped Prem from the pocket money he gets from big brother Dharam (Sanjay Dutt) who doesn’t stay in Goa. Veer has lied to his brother that he’s married to Vidya (Mugdha Godse) to get thicker wads of pocket money. Prem, in turn, is married to Jhanvi (Bipasha Basu). She runs his ancestral gym with second hand treadmills that often speed up instead of stopping.
All is well, until Dharam shows up to meet his younger brother and his wife. Mistakenly, he takes Bipasha as Fardeen’s wife and Mugdha as Devgan’s girlfriend. What follows is a comedy of mistaken identities as Prem and Veer pile up lie upon lie to keep the charade going until times comes for Dharam to leave for his home in Lusoto. But then, there’s a coup in Lusoto and Dharam’s stay is extended.
On the sidelines there’s a menagerie of madcap characters including a tenant who’s eager to move into Veer’s sprawling bungalow. He’s turns up with all the furniture loaded in a tempo outside Veer’s house but gets a bashing from Dharam. Or the local don (Johnny Lever) who seems like the offspring of Sir Judah from Karz, for he talks with his cronies by jangling a spoon inside a glass.
