A daring diamond heist! The loot is smuggled abroad to Dubai. The local crime syndicate in Dubai wants the loot for themselves. But the criminal masterminds have not planned for the shenanigans of Raja (Shahid Kapoor); who to please his lover Tina's (Ayesha Takia) uncle; a supposed Master brain; Chobey (Paresh Rawal); sets out to search for the diamonds. A self-styled driver (Johnny Lever); who ranks his driving skills as better than those of Schumacher; helps the trio to flee in time; only to land them in hotter water than before. Raja has no other option than to rope in Munna (Sunny Deol); a professional wrestler and his agent Lucky (Vivek Oberoi) to find the diamonds. Now with all of them caught up together; and obviously the evident brains of Chobey where Intelligence is an understatement; this stylish robbery turns into a fun frolicking comedy.
