Spoilers ahead
Anand is a sharp, ambitious businessman who keeps crossing paths with the street dancer Devki. When his abroad-based uncle, Anand’s chacha, sees a chance to arrange a marriage, he is warned to prepare for a wife soon. To buy time, Anand fabricates that he is already married. The ruse forces his chacha to travel to India and insist on meeting a wife, so Anand stages a temporary arrangement by taking Devki as his wife. Devki serves as a fatherly figure to Anand’s chacha, earning his respect and affection, and when he returns abroad, the elder man is satisfied and leaves.
