Reviews of the film were mixed. While some felt it was a colourful guilt-free family film released for Eid al-Fitr, others felt that there were too many dirty jokes and that better writing and direction could have helped convey its simple message of community stewardship.


Plot


Ali, a young Pakistani, returns from China to Karachi with gifts for his family and friends. He is in love with his childhood crush Mehru, the daughter of his father's friend, and a marriage alliance is made between their families. Meanwhile, Marzi, a local transgender don, seeks to buy out the neighbourhood in a scheme with a politician to profit from anticipated Chinese development in the area.

Newlyweds Ali and Mehru are unable to conceive a child. A doctor suggests that stress could be the reason, as Mehru has been unable to adjust to the city squalor and fears crime. Ali decides to let her stay at her father's home in the country, while deciding to improve his neighbourhood by changing the attitudes of its residents.

With his trusted friend Jani, Ali sets to convincing the community to improve their neighbourhood. Some are resistant but early progress convinces them to keep the roads and buildings clean, if only as a facade. Mehru realizes that Ali's neighbours are good people, and the revitalization leads to a news telecast of economic growth and financial stability.

Desperate to gain control of the block, Marzi rents an apartment and tries to create trouble with his goons. The politician kidnaps Mehru and demands PRs. 3 crore (30 million rupees) ransom from Ali. To raise the money, his neighbours sell their apartments to Marzi for a mere PRs. 10 lakhs (1 million rupees). Realizing the scheme, Ali and his friends rescue Mehru while the politician is holding a press conference, and expose his misdeeds to the media. Some time later, Ali and Mehru welcome their baby to a safe and clean neighbourhood.
