Ashi is a free-spirited young woman who was born and raised in a very traditional and conservative Indian family that prefers arranged marriages to love arriages. As she is twenty-five years old, her family has arranged her wedding to Rohit Malhotra, son of family friends. As he is established in business, the couple will be residing permanently in Switzerland as Mr. & Mrs. Malhotra.
Respecting her father's guidance and wishes/customs, Ashi agrees to the marriage proposal on the condition that she be allowed to meet her fiancé Rohit anonymously and get a chance to observe his character and personality. Ashi's father obliges to this condition and she soon sets off to Switzerland to meet her potential suitor - Rohit Malhotra.
While she is there, she learns that Rohit is away on an emergency business meeting and nobody can say exactly when he is to return. So Ashi stays in Switzerland for a few months waiting for him, and in the meanwhile she meets a man called Bobby, who is smitten by her beauty and strikes a friendship with her. He soon finds out from her that she is frustrated in her failed attempt to meet Rohit. After a week, Bobby cannot help himself as his heart pines for her. So he disguises himself and meets her as the Rohit she has been waiting for all these months.
Ashi is happy that at last, she gets a chance to meet Rohit before marriage and after a few more weeks, Ashi begins to like this new character. But she then finds out from Rohit's accomplices that Rohit is still on his trip and therefore, Bobby's real identity. This doesn't bother her as she is already in love with Bobby and is ready to move on from Rohit.
Upon their return to India, Ashi explains to her family that she met Bobby instead of Rohit and wants to marry Bobby, not Rohit. Ashi's family are at first, reluctant but after a few weeks, Bobby's family comes with a marriage proposal for Ashi.
As the two families meet and agree for the preparations of their marriage, Bobby's mother introduces herself as the manager of the Bank with which Ashi’s father (Kailashnath) is involved in an on-going fraud/embezzlement case.
In the months leading up to the wedding, Kailashnath is summoned to appear in Court during which Bobby's mother testifies that Kailashnath is one of the perpetrators. Kailashnath immediately and furiously cancels his daughter Ashi's wedding to Bobby. Furthermore, he arranges Ashi's marriage to Rohit. However, after an unexpected reveal, the story ends happily with Ashi marrying her Bobby, and not Rohit.
The music for all the songs were composed by Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan with lyrics were penned by Javed Akhtar.
