Nakul (Ayushmann Khurrana), is a 25-year-old guy working in a company and is in a stable

relationship with his colleague, Renee (Sanya Malhotra). He also met with her mom Sangeeta
(Sheeba Chaddha) who liked him and approved their relationship. His father Jeetender Kaushik
(Gajraj Rao), is a middle-aged man working in the Railways. He pays them a visit during the weekend.
His mother Priyamvada (Neena Gupta) is a middle-aged typical housewife who looks after the family
and gossips with the society's ladies. His younger brother Gullar is a student studying in the twelfth
grade. His grandmother (Surekha Sikri) is above eighty and always quarrels with her daughter-in-law
and taunts her. She also scolds her son everytime as the latter always listens to his wife. Things were
going well but one day, Nakul's granny taunts his mother and the latter gets upset. His father goes to
console her and reads her a poem which he wrote for her. After that they get intimate. 19 weeks
(about 5 months) later, Nakul's mother becomes ill. She is taken to the hospital. The doctors check
her and confirm that they were going to have their third child. They also tell them that if they want
to abort the child, they have to do it within 4–5 days. Priyamvada does not agree to abort the child
because she thinks that it is a great sin. So she decided to go for it. Kaushik at first hesitates as he
feels that it is embarrassing to be a middle-aged parent in the Indian society. He fears that people
will make fun of him and his family. He also thinks that his elder children will never accept their
Mother's pregnancy. But on Priyamvada's insistence, he agrees. After reaching home, they call both
the elder children and are finally able to tell them that they are becoming parents again. Hearing
this, the two get embarrassed and start to avoid their parents, friends and society. Their grandma
also scolded her son and daughter-in-law after hearing this. Soon, the news is made viral and they
are made fun of by the society and even by their relatives and family members. Nakul also avoids
Renee so she goes to his home and finally gets to know about his problem. Nakul's parents also like
her. Nakul's parents ask him and his younger brother to go to Meerut with them for their cousin's
wedding. Both of them refuse by making excuses, the truth being that they still were not able to get
over the embarrassment of their mom's pregnancy. This makes their father angry at them and he
leaves with his wife and mother. Meanwhile, Renee offers a room date to cheer him up. But he is
unable to get intimate with her as it reminds him of his mom's pregnancy. Later Renee invites him to
her mom's birthday party. This is when her mom gets to know about his mom's pregnancy. She
reacts weirdly and speaks ill about his family. Nakul overhears all and the situation gets worse
because he's drunk. He also realises his fault. He understands that he is not doing the right thing by
avoiding his parents and his duty towards the baby. He talks to Renee's mom in a harsh manner and
breaks up with Renee. On the other hand in Meerut, Kaushik's elder sister-in-law and sister talk
harshly with Priyamvada for her late pregnancy, but his mother, for the first time, defends her
daughter-in-law and makes them realise their ill-doing and mean attitude towards her. Kaushik
comes and controls the situation. This is when Nakul's grandma reveals that she was testing her
daughter-in-law all these years. But she had always admired her and she believes that she cannot
ever find a better daughter-in-law than her. On the other hand, a guilty, drunk Nakul sees scars on
Gullar's face. Gullar reveals that some boys made fun of his mom's pregnancy at school and when he
responded to them, one of them hit him. Nakul goes to the school the next day and tells Gullar to
beat the boy. Gullar slaps him thrice. Then Nakul goes to meet his friends and when one of them
tried to make fun of him, he replies to him as well. He reconciles with his parents and begins to fulfil
his duty as a son. Soon his mother realises that he has had a breakup with Renee and she tells him to
apologise to Renee's mother. Nakul is not too enthusiastic about the idea but finally agrees. He goes
to Renee's house and apologizes to her mother wholeheartedly and also invites her with Renee to
his mom's baby shower. Meanwhile, Priyamvada's labour pain starts and they immediately take her
to the hospital. Renee's mom tells her about Nakul's apology and also tells her that she has forgiven
Nakul. Renee then rushes to Nakul's home and finally to the hospital. After the delivery, the doctor
announces the birth of a baby girl. The film ends with a family selfie. As the end credits roll in,
Nakul's and Renee's engagement can be seen, with their entire family giving us the feel of a happy
ending .

A farmer hunts a pesky seemingly visually impaired hare in a cabbage field beside a
highway. As the hare hides behind a milestone on the highway the farmer spots it and takes
aim with his gun.

Akash (Ayushmann Khurrana) is a talented but seemingly blind pianist in search of


inspiration. He spends his time fervently attempting to complete a musical piece which is an
example of his finest art. The only people seemingly aware of his innocuous presence
initially are a neighbouring kid who keeps testing him in attempts to see if he is truly blind,
and a pet cat named Rani.

Akash is knocked over while crossing the road one day by Sophie (Radhika Apte) whose
father owns a diner. Sophie is awed by Akash's talent and gets him a gig at the diner where he
is noticed by yesteryear actor Pramod Sinha (Anil Dhawan). Pramod is married to Simi
(Tabu) and to commemorate their wedding anniversary, invites Akash over to his apartment
for a private performance for himself and his wife. Sophie drops him back to his flat,
whereupon it is revealed that Akash can see, as he watches Sophie drive away. Sophie is
oblivious to this, however, and the two develop a relationship.

When Akash reaches Pramod Sinha's flat, Simi opens the door and is reluctant to let him in,
but does so when she sees that her neighbour is watching them. Simi, convinced that Akash is
blind, allows him to play the piano inside. Akash begins, but immediately notices a body
nearby. However, he feigns ignorance and continues to play the piano to maintain his charade
of blindness.

Akash excuses himself and goes to the bathroom whereupon he sees Inspector Manohar
(Manav Vij) hiding but acts as if he is unaware of him, since he is assumed to be blind. On
his return to the piano, he manages to identify the body as that of Pramod Sinha. Simi and
Manohar (who were lovers) clean the body up silently and put it in a suitcase to be disposed
off while Akash resumes playing the piano — supposedly unaware. In a flashback, it is
revealed that Pramod had lied to his wife about a supposed trip to Bangalore, but had, in
reality, gone to bring anniversary gifts as a surprise for his wife.

Afterwards, Akash attempts to report the murder but is unable to, as he discovers that
Manohar is an inspector in the police station. As Inspector Manohar would know Akash was
aware the whole time, Akash finally ends up lying about the boy living downstairs, and
accusing him of killing his cat Rani to change the reason of his approaching the police.

Simi manages to kill the neighbour who had also noticed Manohar's entry into the flat, once
again in the unwitting Akash's presence, who is forced to continue his charade of being
unaware of either of the murders.
Both Manohar and Simi continue to browbeat Akash, perpetually testing him to ascertain if
he was really blind. Akash finally cracks when Simi manages to pour poison in his coffee in
front of him, in an attempt to ascertain if he was really blind. Akash then insists that he
doesn't want any problems, and just wants to leave for a concert in London. He then tells
Simi that he faked the blindness as part of a social experiment in one of his pursuits for
inspiration as an artist. However, he begins to choke, realising that a sweet that Simi had
given him earlier was poisoned. Retching, he collapses.

Sophie comes by, and sees that the neighbouring child had recorded a video of Akash moving
and seeing his way about like a normal person. Furious and heartbroken, she leaves him.
Akash wakes up and, realising that he cannot see, fervently washes his eyes. He realises he
has been blinded and demands that Simi restore his sight. Simi tells him to focus on his art
and that no one would believe his story of her guilt on the two murders since he was a blind
man, and leaves. After a discussion with Manohar, they decide that blinding Akash would not
be enough as he could still reveal details, and Manohar comes back to finish the job. After a
tense struggle, Akash escapes out to the road, faints and comes to in a shady clinic, which is
revealed to be a front for illicit organ harvesting.

Dr. Swami (Zakir Hussain) and his two assistants decide to spare Akash and help him in his
quest for gaining money required to reverse his blinding. They kidnap and subdue Simi and
blackmail Manohar into bringing one crore rupees to a specified location. At this point
several twists come about. The assistants tie Akash up with Simi to claim all of the money for
themselves. They then extort the money from Manohar, who shoots one of them but gets
trapped in an elevator by the other. Manohar, trapped, then ends up accidentally shooting
himself, leaving his fate uncertain. The money extorted from Manohar is eventually revealed
to be fake money.

Meanwhile, a desperate Akash removes Simi's blindfold after she helps him to free himself.
Akash, blind but guided by Simi, attempts to escape while Simi frees herself and attacks him.
Dr. Swami enters and the two of them subdue Simi. Dr. Swami and Akash tie Simi in the
trunk of a car and begin driving. Dr Swami reveals his plans to harvest Simi's organs for six
crore rupees and pay for Akash's cornea transplant, but Akash is morally perturbed by the
notion. Dr. Swami drives away with Akash, with Simi bound in the trunk.

Two years later, in Europe, a travelling Sophie meets Akash (still apparently blind with dark
glasses) at one of his gigs in Europe, where he tells her the entire story.

Akash then tells her that after Dr. Swami had driven away with him, Simi awakened in the
trunk and started making noises. Dr. Swami dismisses Akash's scruples, stops the car and
goes to the trunk of the car, where he is swiftly overpowered by Simi. Simi then takes control
of the car. Akash, thinking that it is still Dr. Swami at the wheel, continues to try to convince
him to let Simi go. Hearing this, Simi drops Akash off and drives off but changes her mind
and turns around, intending to run him over. At this point, the hare (from the beginning of the
movie) slams into her windshield, causing her to lose control and crash. The car explodes,
killing Simi with it.

Sophie hears the entire story and commiserates. She tells Akash that he should have
harvested Simi's organs and gotten his sight back. Akash, however, doesn't say a word and
leaves with the help of his stick, which has a rabbit carved on its handle. Once out of sight, he
uses the stick to smartly swat a can out of his path.
