These four friends come together to start an import business, selling things longed for by yuppies. They wanted to start this business because of how life was in the 1990s for the average Indian.
This was a time when consumerism had not yet set in and India was devoid of most of the luxuries of the West. Everything that was imported was considered better than anything that was made in India.
These four young friends were able to beat the system and become number one in their business, making fast money by doing all the wrong things. They soon earn amazing amounts of cash because of their unusual ways! They travel to New York City and Las Vegas to celebrate their success and to spend some of their 'hard' earned money. And of course crazy things happen on the way.
As these four friends are living the life of champagne wishes and caviar dreams, they discover that you don’t need big money, just a big idea. Their schemes take them on a wild roller coaster ride into a world they are not used to; a world of high glitz and glamour. This is a world where the stakes are high and the risks are even higher.
All seems to be going well until one day when one of the four entrepreneurs is forced to shut down their operation. The four friends will come up with a grand old plan to beat the system, one last time.
