Aman and Meera are a married couple. Aman does not like it when Meera talks to him about practical things like bills, EMIs, and earning money to run the home. He would rather drink and sing at random bars than in a studio that actually wants to pay him. The supposed reason behind Aman's drinking is that the couple lost their only son some years ago.
Meera is a successful writer who has been offered a suspiciously lucrative ‘ghost’ writing assignment at a secluded spot in Uttrakhand. Just when Meera is about to leave, Aman has an accident and slips into a coma. Meera decides to skip the assignment and huddle at Aman's sick bed. To change her mind, the villain assignment-offerer sends a creature to the hospital where Aman is. The creature then impersonates a nurse, and gets the ward boy to substitute Aman's medicine with alcohol. Meera smells the alcohol, gets angry with Aman and reverts to her decision of going to Uttrakhand.
Once she reaches there, Meera is immediately warned by a random Yamdoot-like middle aged blind man to run for her life. The Yamdoot-man then tries to convince Aman to save Meera. Aman relents and leaves for Binsar. At Binsar, Meera’s new boss is into pet monsters and herbs that are aphrodisiacs. Aman arrives to rescue Meera, but he must fight several battles. Will Aman win over the monsters and finally be useful?Watch the film to find out.

Concluding her review Khurana wrote, "All said, this overstretched drama is way too cliched and soppy to hold your attention, but it does amuse you in its own unique ways. The performances and the soulful music definitely make this 122-minute drama worth a one-time watch."[9]
