examples to show their behaviour and living style.
Rahul (Sharman Joshi) works as a a call centre executive in a BPO in Mumbai. He silently loves his boss, Neha (Kangana Ranaut). A
smart young woman who has made it up the ranks in a very short time. And hard work is not her only secret. Her boss, Ranjeet (Kay Kay
Menon) loves her and is willing to shower her with gifts and opportunities, only if she is willing. In his 30s, Ranjeet is married to Shikha
(Shilpa Shetty) with a 6 year old son. Shikha is very well educated. But they decided that she should stay back at home and take care of
the house and the kid. So Ranjeet ventured out on his quest for money and success and forgot his family somewhere on the way.
Bitterness and boredom crept into their relationship. Soon he found solace and a fresh lease of life in Neha.
Neglected by an indifferent husband and bogged down by family chores, Shikha is soon attracted to a maverick in Akash (Shiny Ahuja).
Akash is a struggling theatre artist whose wife divorces him because she cannot stand his failures anymore. Akash and Shikha's love
blossoms and she almost crosses her limits. It is Shikha's aunty who gives moral strength to her. Shikha's sister and Neha's room-mate,
Shruti (Konkana Sen) works at Radio Mirchi. In her 30's and still a virgin, she's desperate to get married. She is dreamy eyed about her
RJ, Wishy K (Gautam Kapoor). She also meets Debu (Irrfan Khan) through a matrimonial site but hates him. Her affair with Wishy K
blossoms.
Rahul discovers the easiest way to success. Rather the key to success. The key to his uncle's opulent apartment where he stays while his
uncle is away. Most of the men in his office look for places to take their mistresses, girlfriends or prostitutes. He provides the perfect place
to them only for a recommendation for his out of turn promotion. Even Ranjeet gets the key and takes Neha to the apartment. Amidst one
of their escapades Neha asks Ranjeet about their future, a commitment. Ranjeet makes it clear that she should not even think of a
commitment. He insults her and leaves. She tries to commit suicide. Rahul discovers her in his apartment and takes care of her, They
share some loving moments come closer but still she's unsure about him.
