Synopsis

Karamveer Singh (Ayushmann Khurrana) is from a very young age and is good at impersonating the female voice & hence lands up getting female lead roles in mythological plays since his childhood, although he protests every time & would settle for a much smaller but a male role. He is currently unemployed & gets to perform these roles because it fetches him good money. His friend Smiley (Manjot Singh) runs a liquor shop & supports him in his every endeavor. His father runs a shop & is sunk deep into loans he owes to various bank & is unable to pay the EMIs. One fine day while returning from an interview he sees an ad which promises Rs. 70,000/month as salary. He reaches the given address, but the employer 'W Ji' (Rajesh Sharma) rejects him out-rightly without asking a single question. Karamveer pleads incessantly & finally, the W Ji relents & shows him his call center where only ladies work. The call-center is entertaining fantasies of callers who call them, mostly men who don't have a partner in life. Karamveer is shocked, but quickly regains his composure & impromptu answers a call-in female voice for Ms Puja who frequently is on a leave.

'W Ji' is stunned with his skill & immediately hires him & gives him Rs. 25,000 as advance payment. Karamveer tells his father (Annu Kapoor) that he has got a job at MNC & hands him over the advance he received. His father is highly elated & he celebrates with his friend Smily. Next day while returning from his job, a drunk police constable Rajpal (Vijay Raaz) stops him & ask him to drop him home. On the way, he recites a few couplets (Shayari) he has written which irritates Smily & Karamveer, but they bear it because he is a cop. Later at the job, he garners a good fan base because of his sweet voice & sharp presence of mind. One fine day he comes across Mahi (Nushrat Bharucha) when he is about to deliver stuff asked by his father. He is smitten by her beauty & catches her attention with a few witty lines. Later they come across each other randomly at street & Karamveer further impresses her with his witty lines & love blossoms between the two. Over a while, they get engaged.

Here at his job, he comes across a few fans who call him regularly. First one is Toto (Raj Bhansali), a rich spoiled brat. Second is the cop, Rajpal who calls him to recite his couplets which no one wants to listen to. Then there is Roma (Nidhi Bisht), editor of a magazine. She hates men because she had 3 break-ups earlier. The biggest shocker is that his father & brother-in-law Mahinder (Abhishek Banerjee) are also his fans. Over some time, these callers become obsessed with Puja, impersonated by Karamveer & everyone wants to marry Puja. Karamveer is frustrated with such unsolicited requests & offers to quit.

His employer rejects & blackmails him that he would expose his identity to his family which might jeopardize his marriage. Karamveer decides to tell everything to Mahi but fizzles out when he realizes her brother Mahinder is also fan of Puja. He figures out that if he talks rudely with his callers they would automatically get along with their realities & stop calling him. This move backfires as everyone becomes more obsessed with Puja. Toto attempts to commit suicide, Rajpal threatens to abandon his wife.

Karamveer first threatens Toto telling him he is Puja's brother. Later he visits Rajpal's wife when he is not at home & gives her a few gifts telling her that Rajpal has sent her & she should dress to seduce him to reciprocate his love. He invites his father at a restaurant & reveals that Puja (dressed in Burkha) is a Muslim girl, tells Roma that she (Puja) is now engaged, convinces grandmother of Mahinder, that he has fallen for a girl of loose character.

This move further backfires. Toto gangs up his cronies to trash Karamveer (assuming he is her abusive brother). Mahi convinces her grandmother that she should not judge the character of a girl on hear-say (she is unable to recollect that it was Karameer who told him about Puja) & honor love of Mahinder to which she agrees. His father transforms everything (home, language, clothes, etc) as per Muslim customs. Roma insists she meets Puja's fiance & check if he is an honorable man. Karamveer meets Roma at a mall posing as the fiance of Puja & comes across Mahi who is also shopping at the mall. Roma who is already skeptical of Karamveer's character tells Mahi that he is engaged to Puja, when Mahi reveals that she is engaged to Karamveer & his duplicity is exposed. Mahi runs away from the scene when Karamveer is not able to explain the situation to her.

He chases her & takes her to his office & explains everything. 'W Ji' misbehaves with Mahi & she slaps him in front of his staff. Karamveer defends Mahi & leaves the office, further enraging 'W Ji'. Mahi reconciles with Karamveer consoles him saying that everyone makes mistakes. They later go to play where Karamveer is playing role of Radha. Matters come to a head when Mahinder (who was with Mahi when they confronted Karamveer) reaches Karamveer's house & his father is planning his Nikah to Puja. Toto also reaches there, and they all realize that they are all in love with the same woman. Karam's dad is specifically angry to know that Karam betrayed him (Mahinder told Karam's dad that Puja is engaged to Karam)

In the end, Rajpal comes along with a few cops & 'W Ji' claiming he has killed Puja. While taking him away Karamveer recites one of his couplets & Rajpal is taken aback & believes that Karamveer has been impersonating Puja. Later Roma comes with the real Puja (whom W had paid to vanish for a few days) & exposes the treachery of 'W Ji' & everything ends well when Toto, Mahinder & his father learns that he has been impersonating Puja (Vedika Bhandari) all the while.
