The whole film has him chasing a suitable match for his twin nephews Charan and Karan (Arjun Kapoor) across India and London. What could have been a super clichéd film becomes entertaining purely because of the performances. The actor that merits first mention is Pawan Malhotra who plays the domineering father of Charan. He lives the role of the insulted dad who must get his son married in a month’s time to prove a point to his sister played by Ratna Pathak Shah.
