Pranav Joshi (Malhar Thakar) works as an industrial designer in Ahmedabad. When his father's dyeing factory in Jetpur goes bankrupt, his parents are forced to move with him in Ahmedabad. When they are insulted by his land lady, Pranav decides he has had enough and decides to buy his own house in the city.
Pranav and his fiancée Kajal (Monal Gajjar) finalize a house, but the house owner backs out after the deal is finalized. Pranav resumes his search and finds a house, which is above his budget, but decides to buy it nonetheless. Pranav and Kajal decide to get married so they can avail higher loan as the joint applicants. Pranav manages rest of the amount from friends and his boss, but the bank refuses to approve the loan at the last moment because he works for a proprietary firm. Pranav delivers an impassioned speech and walks out of the bank. In the fortunate turn of events, because of a client work he had done, his firm secures an international client and now it's a private limited firm and Pranav is eligible for the loan again.
The film ends with Pranav, Kajal, and his parents moving into the new house.
