[edit] Plot

K.K. Khosla (Anupam Kher) is a middle class man living in New Delhi. He is a simple man with simple tastes. The plot starts with a scene where Khosla dreams about his death. The irony is that nobody cares about his death; instead his children & neighbours are more interested in their materialistic needs.

One early morning in Delhi, Khosla wakes up and plans to go to the site where he has purchased a plot to build his house. He is accompanied by his wife (Kiran Juneja), eldest son Bunty (Ranvir Shorey), second son Chironjilal Khosla aka Cherry(Parvin Dabas), and his daughter Nikki. When they reach the spot they find that the site has been occupied by someone else and on further investigation find that it has been captured by a property usurping nexus headed by a man named Kishan Khurana (Boman Irani).

Khurana demands Rs. 15 lakhs to vacate the plot, which Khosla refuses to give. Bunty gathers few local strongmen and forcefully destroys the walls and re-occupies the plot. But Khurana has the police on his side and he gets Khosla arrested. After a day in the lock-up, Khosla is released. Khurana's assistant Munjal comes to see Khosla and tells them that Khurana is ready to do the deal at Rs. 12 Lakh. Cherry meets an agent Asif Iqbal (Vinay Pathak), who at one time was Khurana's partner. Khurana took away Asif's ancestral land by cheating him. So now united against a common enemy, they decide to turn tables on Khurana.

With the help of Cherry's girlfriend Meghna (Tara Sharma), they convince her father Bapu (Navin Nischol) (who runs a theater company) to act as Sethi, an N.R.I. businessman from Dubai who has come to India to sell a plot of land. They set up a fake paperwork and the plot they show to Khurana doesn't belong to Sethi. Khuarana likes the plot and agrees to buy it for Rs. 1 crore 40 lakhs and gives 35 lakhs as advance.

In the end, Khosla gives the required 12 lakh to Khurana and takes possession of his plot. Khurana comes to know the reality about the plot but is helpless as he has no clue of who cheated him. With the help of excess money (after giving Asif and Bapu their share), Khoslas build a house on the plot. Bunty becomes an estate agent. Cherry changes his name to Chirag (as he doesn't like his original name Chironjilal) and marries Meghna.
