The story has the Sensex as a backdrop to the lives of
the most unlikely investors. Indians are terrifically
progressive people and this film shows that in a light
hearted way. The film has a multi-cultural neighbourhood,
call center classes and fun. There is the saas-bahu part
and share market excitements, women empowerment, and
even a love triangle.
Binita Sen (Kiron Kher) divorces her husband and leaves
their comfortable home in Kolkata. She comes to the new
environs of Navi Mumbai along with her daughter Nitya (Tanushree
Dutta).
Now the call centre friend Ritesh has a girl friend
Kirti Wagaskar (Masumi Makhija) who is dreams high. She
has grand plans for her marriage. Kirti dislikes the
lifestyle of her elder sister Parimal who is a good
housewife to her grumpy husband Ganpatrao.
The fun begins when the kitty ladies get suspicious of
Binitar's unexplained increase in wealth, how love plays
up against money forms the twist in the tale. This group
of kitty party ladies, feel, that Binita is up to
something dubious, they haven't got the gossip and keep
wondering why did she leave her husband anyways?
One day in Nitya's call center, by chance she happens to
hear the conversation of the CEO's of two companies who
are visiting her office. She tells her mother about it
and that they are going to get their children married.
Binita advises her friends to invest in their companies
because the stock prices are likely to go up with the
marriage.

Nitya drops her ambition to
do her MBA in the USA, begins to work at a call centre.
Facing difficulties in the new city, new job, she finds
it a little easier however to cope with the situation,
courtesy her newfound friend, Ritesh Jetmalani (Ankur
Khanna) who is very caring and understanding.
Nitya’s mother Binita Sen befriends the women in their
colony in Navi Mumbai and even joins their kitty
parties. She believes that this is the best opportunity
to start life afresh, knowing in her heart that her
daughter is annoyed with her and that her mom is
responsible for their hard life in a new city.
Binita Sen’s father had left her some shares and then
she locates her father’s old stock broker to discover
the worth of her holdings. Here she meets Firoz Sethna (Farooq
Shaikh), an ethical but irritable and a weird stock
broker who guides her in her investments.
So now the news of Ritesh
marrying Kirti is favorable for everyone and the markets
too. Nitya, despite her feelings for Ritesh, cannot do
anything more. Binita sees her daughter’s dilemma and
finally tells her the real reason for her coming to New
Mumbai. Her husband had left her for a younger woman,
and she didn’t want her daughter to deal with the
pressure or gossip nor did she want to be dependent on
him.
Then comes the wedding day for Ritesh. Kirti has other
plans, and the tamasha begins. There is shocking news
for the stock prices. Then again some foreign investors
develop a fancy for this company, and then the SENSEX
soars again….
On the acting front, Masumi Makhija, Tanushree Dutta are
their usual. The film survives on the performances of
Farooq Shaikh and Kiron Kher. Farooq Shaikh is awesome
in the role of a cranky stock broker. Ankur Khanna has
given a decent performance.
