- Madhav "Maddy" Kabra (Imran Khan) is an architect who is in love with Payal (Kangana Ranaut) because of her attitude towards life. They are in a live-in relationship for 5 years until a sudden turn of events makes Payal leave Maddy. It is not exactly clear why Payal left Maddy, but its been 2 years now, but Maddy is still unable to fully let go of Payal's memory. Everyone associated to Maddy is concerned about his mental health and wants him to let go.
Before dating Maddy, Payal used to date Ricky (Vivan Bhatena). Ricky followed Payal to Ahmedabad (where Maddy & Payal went to college) & even fought Maddy for her. Now, after 2 yrs of breakup, Ricky re-surfaces as a client for Maddy's architecture firm and takes every opportunity to insult Maddy.
A lot of the film is in flashback and delves upon how madly in love Maddy was with Payal. Payal herself was a free spirit and had never been tied down to one thing or idea. This was a relationship doomed for failure. Payal & Maddy lived in Mumbai after college and shared an apartment. Maddy's mom died during their relationship. Maddy was very close to his mom and felt alone. He & his entire family looked to Payal to support Maddy during this time. Maddy's family accepted Payal as one of their own.
Maddy gets in touch with Payal after their break up. Payal is in Delhi now. Payal acts very aloof & seems to have moved on from her relationship with Maddy. This hurts Maddy more than anything. Then Maddy dates his colleague Devika, on the advise of his best friend. The best friend, sends the photos of Maddy with Devika to Ricky. Ricky wastes no time in showing those photos to Payal. The next thing Maddy finds is that Payal is getting married to Ricky. Maddy meets their common friends who tell Maddy that Payal was getting increasingly disturbed at the regular fights between her & Maddy. But Maddy is shocked to learn that the version of the fights told by Payal was completely devoid of any truth.
Maddy finds the location of Payal's wedding & turns up to disrupt it. He even picks a huge fight with Ricky, but is stopped when Payal slaps him hard. Maddy leaves, but is not convinced. But that's when he is told by his own sister that Payal was diagnosed with a life ending condition, the same day his mom died. So, Payal could never tell Maddy as she could not see Maddy undergoing the same pain twice. Hence she convinced everyone to play along with her and try and convince Maddy to move on from her. Even Ricky was part of the plan, who agreed to put his marriage on hold, to participate in this charade.
When Maddy finds, he traces Payal again & says that he wants to spend the remaining time with her. He gets married to Payal, stays with her through Chemotherapy and finally after a few months Payal dies in his arms
