They disguise themselves as businessmen, go to an old age home and quickly become close to the seniors living there, all the while looking for the person closest to death. They select Iqbal, whose kidneys are not working and whose liver is infected. They get him insured, and wait for time to pass by while the papers get ready. Unfortunately, the old man refuses to die and even wins a marathon race. In desperation, Jaggi adopts another senior, but the plan backfires and he gets stuck with the entire nursing home of seniors at his rented house, along with their caretaker. Jaggi falls for Preet. When his money runs out, Jaggi goes to an Asian gangster for money, who tells him to steal the Queen's crown at an event. Jaggi agrees, and takes the help of the seniors, without Preet's knowledge. The plan is successful, but Preet learns the truth, along with another revelation that Jaggi's frustrated friend, Bhullar, reveals: the oldies were adopted for insurance money.
