  • Each grows up in a different city and becomes engaged to a different girl (Tina, Meera, and Anjali).

  • Meanwhile, a gang of mistaken kidnappers tries to abduct “the rich one,” but ends up taking Bunty instead!

  • The climax includes a full-blown slapstick chase involving elephants, helicopters, and a wedding train going off-track.
