When Rotlu, Jiggy, Bombs and Shaleen offer to tell Mala the tale of Jai and Aditi--a match made in the pastry shop of heaven--Mala is convinced that she is in for yet another clichéd love story with joys and sorrows, happiness and heartbreak, laughter and songs, fights and a climax at the airport. Never was there a less likely couple than Jai Singh Rathore ('Rats'), the most non-violent Rajput on either side of the Aravallis, and the violent and passionate Aditi Mahant ('Meow'). Jai thinks Aditi's parents should have rinsed her mouth with soap when she was a child. Aditi thinks that Jai is the biggest coward she has ever encountered. Heaven, it seems, has mixed up its apples and oranges. Jai and Aditi are perfect for each other (in some odd, distorted way, impossible to understand). Friends know this. Parents know this. Everybody knows this. But do Rats and Meow know? Can two people ever, truly, know the secrets of their hearts? And how do you know it's the real thing? When do you know it's love?
