== Plot ==<br />
Babloo is a middle-class man living with his wife, Janki, and their son, Bhuvan. After their usual morning routine, Bhuvan takes an auto-rickshaw to college but is surprised when his father joins him in the same auto. Due to this, Bhuvan is late for his singing audition but manages to get a little extra time out of sympathy. However, when he checks his guitar, he discovers that the battery is missing, as his father had taken it.<br />
<br />
At his office, Babloo is called in by his boss, who informs him that he has been promoted. However, there's a catch—his salary will be reduced because of his tardiness. Just when things seem to be going downhill, Babloo buys a lottery ticket and, to everyone's surprise, wins. However, fate takes a turn when he gets into an accident and loses his memory.<br />
<br />
Bhuvan, determined to find the person responsible for the accident, starts investigating. Along with his friends, he visits the crime scene and questions a shopkeeper about what happened. However, the killer secretly bribes the shopkeeper, instructing him to provide no information. Disappointed, Bhuvan and his friends sit down on a nearby bench, when Detective Mangloo suddenly appears and points out that the killer is right beside them. Bhuvan and his two friends chase the suspect. The killer is eventually caught by Bhuvan’s friend, Sameer, who forces him to unmask. Bhuvan is shocked to discover that the killer is none other than his uncle, Titu.<br />
<br />
=== Flashback ===<br />
Titu is talking to his wife, Kavita, when he accidentally hits someone with his car. Upon stopping, he discovers that the person he hit is his brother-in-law.<br />
<br />
=== Present time ===<br />
Titu confesses everything to his sister, but she, unforgiving and furious, orders him to leave and never show his face again. With teary eyes, Titu leaves. As soon as he departs, the neighbors gather around, treating Babloo like a VIP. Out of greed, they even suggest building a statue in his honor, given his newfound fame.<br />
<br />
Later, Titu, along with Bhuvan and his friends, is at a bar, where Titu tearfully explains to Bhuvan that the accident was not his fault. Suddenly, Bhancho, Bhuvan's friend, receives a message, and just then, Detective Mangloo appears. After asking for 20 INR, Mangloo sends Bhancho a video—footage from a camera on the road where the accident occurred. The video shows that Hola, Babloo's enemy, pushed him after learning that he had won the lottery.<br />
<br />
Angered by this revelation, Titu convinces Bhancho and Sameer (Bhuvan's friend) to join him in confronting Hola. Armed with weapons, they secretly enter Hola's house and knock him out with a blow to the head. After Hola regains consciousness, they force him to record a video confession, admitting to what he did. After a severe beating, Hola finally complies.<br />
<br />
Titu then shows the video to his sister, Janki, and things seem to be resolved. However, Bhuvan overhears his father talking to a woman and realizes that Babloo had been faking his memory loss all along.<br />
<br />
=== Flashback ===<br />
Babloo regains consciousness and secretly slips into the bathroom. There, he dials the number of the lottery shop and reads the number on his lottery ticket to the shopkeeper. The shopkeeper congratulates him, but only for winning a fridge. Confused, Babloo insists that he won 11 [[crore]] INR. The shopkeeper explains that the lottery ticket worth 11 crore INR begins with a '0.'<br />
<br />
Without thinking, Babloo responds, "Yeah, but we don't count the value of zero."<br />
<br />
The shopkeeper, annoyed, curses him and hangs up. Realizing that he hadn’t won the 11 crore INR lottery but had already told his wife about winning, Babloo decided to fake memory loss to cover up the lie.<br />
<br />
=== Present time ===<br />
A kid from the community calls out to Babloo to come downstairs but accidentally overhears him admitting that he didn’t actually win the lottery.<br />
