In an effort to separate from their families, Kapil and Saumya try to secure a flat under the Indian government's flagship program. However, they soon discover that they need to get a divorce to qualify. This sets the stage for a comedy of errors that ensues throughout the film.

The Impactful Climax Saves the Day
