== Plot ==

Following the events of ''[[De De Pyaar De]]'', 51-year-old London-based NRI investor Ashish Mehra decides to meet his 27-year-old girlfriend Ayesha Chaudhary's family to get their approval, after having previously received his own family's approval. However, Ayesha is perplexed about introducing Ashish when she learns her sister-in-law Kittu is pregnant. They arrive in Ayesha's town, with Rounak also following soon. She initially confides about Ashish to Kittu, revealing her plans to break the news in the midst of the newborn baby's arrival, but her parents, Rakesh and Anju, who share the same nickname for each other, "Rajji", end up learning about it. They question Ayesha, who partly reveals the truth, intending to keep his real age a secret. Despite their progressive and modern outlook, the Rajjis become convinced she is hiding something, but agree to nonetheless meet Ashish.

However, tensions arise when they realise that Ashish is almost as old as Rakesh. The two confront Ayesha over her lie once they learn from a private investigator about his background, leading to Rakesh's disapproval of her relationship. In the midst of their argument, Kittu goes into labour. They rush her to the hospital where she gives birth to a girl. Later, they all attend a party where Rakesh beats up a man who was ogling Ayesha. Ayesha confronts Rakesh over the scene at the party and they have a huge argument, following which Ayesha leaves with Ashish. Eventually, Rakesh comes to Ashish’s house and apologises to Ayesha, asking them both to come back. However, it is revealed that the parents have decided to do a 'coup de foudre' by hiring Ayesha’s childhood friend Aditya to seduce her and drive her away from Ashish.

Aditya flirts continuously with Ayesha, and employs various ways to seduce her including taking her to a nightclub. He manages to make her fall in love with him and start a relationship with him. Ashish realises that this was Rakesh’s plan and confronts him. He eventually relents and promises to not stop Ayesha from courting Aditya or get in their way. He also requests Rakesh to give Ayesha the life she deserves, if he is unable to do so. Eventually, Ashish walks in on Ayesha and Aditya passionately kissing. This saddens him and he prepares to go back to London along with Rounak. Ayesha tries to convince him to not leave and eventually yells at him for "not fighting for her". However, Ashish is not deterred and leaves. Saddened by his departure, and out of spite for him, she proposes to Aditya for marriage. A little while later, she calls Rounak and requests him to tell Ashish to send back her luggage as she is getting married. Eventually, the day of Ayesha and Aditya's wedding arrives. During the wedding, Rakesh notices that Ayesha was tearing up causing him to get emotional. Later, Ayesha's mother, on a call with Rakesh, sees her crying and enquires what was wrong.

It is revealed in a flashback that she had then confronted Aditya over him trying to seduce her. He had then confessed to her that Rakesh had hired him to seduce her and he had no true feelings for her. She and Aditya had both pretended to love each other and she had never moved on from Ashish. She had also convinced her mother to help her persuade Rakesh to let her marry Ashish-her emotional conversation with Ayesha over her feelings towards Ashish and Aditya that Rakesh had overheard on the phone had actually been pre-planned by both of them.

Rakesh plans to go to London to get Ashish, but on reaching the airport receives a call from Rounak that Ashish is leaving for India to stop Ayesha's wedding and they both rush to the venue. Both of them repeatedly try to convince Ayesha to stop the marriage and marry Ashish instead. Eventually, she agrees and reveals the truth to Ashish about having faked her relationship with Aditya. She kisses him and the film concludes with Ashish informing Manju of his impending nuptials.
