Plot
Remo (Rahul Khanna) is a multi-millionaire simpleton. Thanks to his mischievous half-brother Siddarth (Sharman Joshi), who meets Sophie (Tanushree Dutta), he falls in love with her and marries her. Trouble starts when Sunny (Jimmy Sheirgill), Sophie's ex-boyfriend, enters the picture. Sunny and Sophie hatch a diabolical plan to kill Remo by natural means - threatening fake bullets, so that he dies in an asthmatic attack, and no suspicion is raised. Sunny fires his gun, and Remo gets killed as the bullets are real. Siddharth has set this up. It is revealed that Siddharth and Sophie are indeed in a relationship and working together by killing Remo to take revenge against his half-brother and his father. His father had an extramarital affair with another woman, causing Siddharth's mother to have a mental breakdown, sending her to a mental asylum, and now taking over his ownership money and framing Sunny for the murder. However, all the money from Remo's bank account is removed, and it is revealed that Remo is indeed alive, and all he had to do was fake his death to catch him. He, Sunny, SMS and CBI Officer Pradhan were all working together to catch him red-handed. In the climax, Siddharth and Sophie meet Remo, and officer Pradhan comes to arrest them. A fight starts between the men, fatally injuring Siddharth, while Sophie runs away and falls into an open grave. Remo looks at her and feels sorry for loving the wrong person. An enraged Siddharth comes from behind to stab Remo, but Remo dodges the attack and accidentally stabs Sophie and himself, falling into the grave, thus ending both of their lives. In the end, Remo meets his stepmother in the mental asylum, claiming he doesn't know her. When he gets into his car, he meets Sunny and thanks him for saving him from getting framed for murder. Both men shake hands.
