Happy (Diana Penty) is supposed to marry Bagga (Jimmy Shergill), a small-time corporator. But, on the eve of her wedding, she tries to elope with her boyfriend, Guddu (Ali Fazal), a musician. However, during her escape stunt, she inadvertently finds herself in a truck which is scheduled to arrive in Lahore, to Bilal's (Abhay Deol) place. Happy informs Bilal, an upcoming politician, that she wants to call Guddu. Bilal refuses to help her. At Amritsar (home town of Happy) Guddu is abducted by Bagga to make sure that Happy would have to ultimately return to him. Happy creates a ruckus when in town & is caught by police officer who informs Bilal. Bilal intends to deport her immediately. Happy fears that she would be handed over to her father, who would forcefully marry her off to Bagga. She threatens Bilal that she would ruin his family name by announcing to media that she is been smuggled from India as a part of human trafficking racket. Bilal is confused & is confronted by his fiance Zoya. Initially Zoya feels that Bilal is cheating her, but then assumes for a while that Happy is telling the truth & co-operates with both. Zoya suggests that only way to get rid of Happy is to get Guddu over here, marry them & deport them back. Till then Happy is to stay at Bilal's residence. Meanwhile Bilal has really hardtime keeping this secret from his father & always tensed by run-away bride Happy who is out of control as well.
