Spoilers ahead

Siddhant Rai is a wealthy single father who raises three children—Rohit, Rahul, and Rani—inside a home shared with the loyal family butler, BBC. Without a mother in the house, the youngsters are a handful, their mischief so constant that it consistently drives away any teacher or governess Siddhant hires.

Because his demanding job keeps him away, Siddhant arranges for a new governess, much to the dismay of the children. Into this turmoil steps Shekhar and his friend Jadu, who have just pulled off a bank robbery and are dodging the police when Shekhar meets Anna as she heads to work as the Rai children’s new caregiver. Anna is introduced to the kids; at first they resist, but soon they begin to see her as an older sister figure.
