Three friends-- Tanuj as 'Ved', Sahil Khatter as 'Dhaari', and Sahil Vaid as 'Cookie', are introduced. The show, set against the backdrop of Delhi, takes an unexpected turn when three friends find themselves entrusted with a bag of Rs 2 crore to shoot the comeback music video for Punjab's most celebrated rapper 'Babbar'.
However, a night of revelry leads to chaos, and the three wake up with no memory, the bag missing, and the rapper mysteriously absent. What follows next is a chaos full of twists and hilarious mishaps. The video ends with Raftaar's dialogue "Beta is jungle me ek sher tha, hai, or rahega, 'Babbar'".
