The title is based on an old Punjabi phrase, which literally means- "when you are alive, life's a carnival" (in the movie, it differs due to the change in context, where it is deciphered as- "You meet until you are alive").

Mitro's family decides to marry her off to someone else, but on the day of her wedding she consumes poison and runs to Abijot.

Abijot gets depressed so he decides to leave India and come to Canada, where his mind will be kept off of Mitro.

So Abijot moves into Lucky's house, his childhood friend who is married to a black woman.

Abijot calls his parents in India, he lies and tells them he needs money to buy a house.

Instead of buying a house he pays for Ekam's surgery with the money which is successful.

After the operation is declared successful, Ekam is unhappy at seeing Iqbal because she loves Abijot.

Roop says Mitro died a year ago and that he went back to meet his sick father.

The two families finally realize that two lovers can never be separated and consent to their union.
