Plot summary
The economic downturn leaves Jerry Patel and Nick Mathur without work in London. Jerry, an undergraduate doing odd jobs, looks after his nephew Veer, a school-age boy who has lost his parents. Unpaid school fees put Veer's custody at risk, and the social service worker handling the adoption case, Vikrant Mehra, warns Jerry about his finances. Nick intends to marry Radhika Awasthi, who wants a wedding to remember, a honeymoon and a home, and he cannot see how to pay for it. Short of money, the two sign on as escorts with a company run by Mr. Khalnayak, paid to keep women company.
