Plot

Three bachelors -- Anshul a.k.a. Gogo (Kartik Aaryan), Siddharth a.k.a. Chauka (Sunny Nijar) and Tarun a.k.a. Thakur (Omkar Kapoor) are flatmates and best friends. Later they all find their girlfriends: Gogo meets Ruchika a.k.a. Chiku (Nushrat Bharucha) and gives her his number. Siddharth meets Supriya (Sonnalli Seygall) at a family wedding and instantly falls for her. Thakur meets Kusum (Ishita Raj Sharma) while working out at the gym and they start seeing each other.

Apart from that those three girls don't like each other, each of the three love stories has its own problem. Chiku gets too close with her best friend Sunny, male, as close as they live together and can even sleep in one bed. Supriya doesn't have the guts to tell her parents about Siddharth. She introduce Sidharth as her normal friend to her parents. Her father, who thinks she should get married but still has no boyfriend, looks for mate for her on Internet, and even asks Siddharth to help him finding groom for Supriya, which annoys Siddharth a lot. Kusum is too cautious about money: she insists everyone, despite of relationship with another, should only spends his own money. She even stops Thakur from paying the bill for dinner with his friends, but makes sure that Thakur spends High amounts of money on her.

The three boys tired to solve the issues in their own love stories, and their girlfriends also appear to be willing to help solve those problems. Chiku drives Sunny out of her house; Supriya finally tells her father that she loves Siddharth and wants to marry him, but gets firmly rejected; Kusum also agrees not to care that much about money.

Despite the effort of the three boys and the three girls, the problems remain: after Chiku drives Sunny out of her house, Gogo accidentally hears her flatmates telling her that she should break up with Gogo and be in love with Sunny, as they all think she and Sunny are real in love; Supriya runs away from home and meets Siddharth and spends the night with him. Her father arrives there the next morning with police. He accuses Siddharth of taking Supriya away from her house against her will. Supriya, who always does not have the guts to oppose her father, supports her father's claim and testifies against Siddharth. Thakur resigns and starts his own website, encouraged by Kusum. However, Kusum refuse to financially support Thakur's plan even if it will benefit the both if it succeeds.

Finally, the three boys all give up their love for feeling desperate. Gogo breaks up with Chiku by keeping saying "I love you" and he says he learns from her that those three words are cheapest words. Siddharth breaks up with Supriya in police station right after she testifies against him. Thakur breaks up with Kusum and tells her she should return over Rs 8 Lakhs approx that he spent on her, according to her life rules that she doesn't like taking favours from anyone.

Reception

Some critics enjoyed the comedy but were disappointed at the over the top misogyny in the final act of the movie. Rajeev Masand of CNN-IBN gave the movie 3 stars describing the movie as "The film is funnier and slightly less misogynistic than the prequel." He notes that "It’s in the last act that the film throws away any pretence of humor and adopts an especially spiteful tone that’s reminiscent of the earlier film. Until this point the jokes were consistently funny and the stereotyping seldom mean-spirited."[5] Hindustan Times praised the performance of the actors, stating "All the actors fit perfectly into their characters: The boys effortlessly depict what men often discuss during boys’ talk and the girls play dumb as and when the character demands."[6] The Hindu review stated "Carrying forward the flavour of the original, it is a film that many men make in their minds!"[7] The Economic Times review mentioned "Sure, the film may resonate with the masochistic sorts who like taking a whipping in love or even those who enjoy a few laughs no matter the joke, but the rest can easily skip this one."[8]

Like the 2011 film's famous five minute long monologue where Kartik Aaryan's character vents about the frustrations with dating women, this movie delivered a seven minute long monologue.[9][10][11]

Box office

The film grossed 5.50–5.75 crore on its opening day,[12] beating the records of Piku, Katti Batti and Jazbaa.[13] By the end of the first weekend, a total of 22.40 crore (US$3.1 million) total had been collected.[14] The film collected 39.25 crore (US$5.5 million) by the end of its opening week.[15]
