== Plot ==

The film starts with Arvind and his son Khagesh planning a way to get rich. They plan a fake construction project and invite fake sellers to collect money from an unsuspecting buyer called Nagda. However, Nagda discovers the plan and calls debt collectors to empty Arvind’s house as a lien. They find out that their uncle, Bhupat, is dying and want to give his property to them. The property can pay off the debt. However they need to travel to get Buhpat’s signature before getting the house.

On the way to his house, they lose their suitcase on the highway. They run over a secret agent called Vikrant who is going to attend a meeting with terrorists Shahrukh and Farooq. The terrorists were going to give the agent a briefcase that could be used to plot against India. Arvind goes with his family to the hotel which the agent had booked, where he meets another secret agent, Priya. When Vikrant wakes up, he decides to involve Arvind and Kagesh in his plan despite their low intelligence. They both agree that they will exchange the terrorists briefcase with Avrvind’s suitcase.

The plan goes awry as the Indian military ambush them and suspect them of being terrorists. The duo end up getting chained to the briefcase, which ends up being a bomb, and have to test their ‘loyalty’ to the terrorist before they reveal their plans. They end up discarding the bomb, but end up getting trapped in a terrorist camp. The leader of the organization is revealed to be the Pakistan Defense minister, Parvez Mukhtar. They then find out that Vikrant was actually a terrorist all along. They are left to die, but somehow manage to flee from there. In a function, Khagesh finds out that the terrorists have planted a bomb to kill the Pakistan PM, instead of the Indian PM like Arvind had originally thought. Khagesh and Arvind manage to get rid of the bomb and save the lives of both prime ministers. Kagesh and Arvind both get medals of honor from the Indian Prime Minister.
