Plot

Jass is an orphan guy living on rent in the house of Advocate Dhillon and his son Goldie Dhillon. The only dream of Jass is to go Canada but he doesn't meet the eligibility as he failed in education. So, the only way to go to Canada is to marry any NRI girl in Canada. Coincidentally, his friend Honey works as a mediator in a marriage agency. Jass asks him to find any NRI girl for him. Jass and Honey go to an NRI marriage, where the people are NRIs. In the marriage, Jass meets a girl who is an NRI girl, and her name is Meet and he falls in love with her. He stalks Meet, comes to know that Meet is also an orphan girl and she had spent her whole life alone so she wants to marry a boy who has a large family. So, Jass makes a plan with Honey to trick Meet believing that Jass has a large family and he loves her a lot. Soon, Meet requests Jass to take her to meet his family with her uncle. But Jass refuses since he does not have any family. On the other hand, Meet's uncle starts searching for grooms for Meet. Her uncle and Honey had met before so they asked him to find any groom for her and Honey asks Meet to marry Jass. Jass hatches a new plan of showing that Advocate Dhillon is his father and showing Dhillon that Meet is Goldie's wife but this creates a lot of confusion and problems. After marrying Meet, Jass started asking her to go to Canada but she refuses as she thinks that it is cruel to abandon Jass's family. So, Jass makes another plan so that Meet could hate his family and should take him to Canada. It took a lot of time but this plan works and Jass ran away with Meet but Goldie's uncle Tony saw them and informs Advocate Dhillon who thought Jass is running with his daughter in law (Goldie's wife) so he starts following them with his house servant who meets them on the way. Then Tony sees them running and he thinks Advocate loves her and running away. In last, all the confusion is cleared in the drama played by Honey.
