Delhi-based school backbenchers Vikas "Hunny" Gulati and Dilip "Choocha" Singh are perpetually dreaming of making it big and want to get into the local college but don't have the required grades.

The college guard Pandit tells them that he can provide them with the leaked class XII papers for a large sum of money.

Lali is currently pursuing his degree through correspondence and, like Hunny and Choocha, also wants to get into the same college, where his girlfriend Shalu, who ignores him all the time, studies.

Zafar's girlfriend, Neetu, who has broken up with him over his career choices, is now giving private tuition to Lali so that he can get the marks to get into the college of his dreams.

On Zafar's insistence, Pandit is talked into taking them to meet a local gangster, Bholi Punjaban, where Hunny tells them their scheme.

Now to recover her money, she gives them a packet containing drug pills, which Zafar, Hunny, and Lali have to sell at a rave party the same night.

Impressed, Bholi goes inside and returns with the pills, only to be caught red-handed by the police and Narcotics Division, who have raided her home.

While Hunny, Choocha, Lali, and Neetu were investing the money, Zafar met the Narcotics Division and made a plan to catch Bholi and also called Neetu, Lali, Choocha, and Hunny, where they confessed to the police.

Three months later, it is shown that Hunny and Choocha have become rich and are entering the same college on horses as they had planned at the beginning of the film, while Pandit is shocked to see them.
