Remo (Rahul Khanna) is a multi-millionaire simpleton. Thanks to his mischievous friend Siddarth he meets Sophie (Tanushree Dutta), 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.

The climax has some unexpected twists and turns.
