On his way to his wedding venue, Raghu meets Gayatri (Parineeti Chopra), an open minded, free willed, independent woman who lives life on her own terms. An already confused Raghu, heavily impressed by her freedom, gathers the guts to run away from his own wedding.A fortnight later, the two meet and begin dating. Entering into a live-in-relationship, Mr. Gupta (Tarun Vyas) is a typical Desi Neighbor of Gayatri, who catches Raghu with Gayatri and later creates some issues in Raghu's mind, but the two decide to get married. On the day of the wedding, Gayatri runs out on him, and Raghu is left inconsolably confused.
Soon after, at a wedding, Raghu meets Tara (Vaani Kapoor), the woman he was going to tie the knot with, before he met Gayatri. She asks him out initially on a revenge trip but slowly their relationship turns serious. Just as Raghu is about to ask her to marry him at a wedding, he runs into Gayatri. The bride's mom sends Raghu and Gayatri after Pandit on the way Gayatri tries to talk to Raghu but he is reluctant. When they reach home at dinner Raghu finds Tara and Gayatri sitting on same table, Tara tells him that she invited Gayatri to a dinner on Sunday. Raghu gingerly makes an excuse for the bathroom.
