Tinni wants an amicable break-up where no feelings are hurt on either side.
Mickey suggests that Tinni and her partner match each other's horoscopes, and if they do not align, then the marriage can be called off. However, their horoscopes align perfectly, and the plan fails. Mickey soon finds out that the client is none other than Tinni and is heartbroken as she did not discuss her concerns with him and try to sort out the misunderstandings.

Next, Mickey suggests to do a "loyalty test" and Tinni hires a girl Anya (Nushrratt Bharuccha) to seduce Mickey and if he cheats on her, then she could easily breakup with him.

Sometime later, they meet again at Kinchi's baby shower. Tinni's foot is injured while dancing at the function and Mickey along with his family care for her, which makes her realize the value of living together as a family.
Mickey's niece Chhoti, while talking to Tinni, blurts out a unique phrase that she heard from Mickey that causes Tinni to realize that the breakup consultant was in fact Mickey. She confronts him about it and says that she is disappointed as even after knowing the truth, he did not try to sort out the matter with her and that she still loves him.
