The story revolves around three friends who stay together in a rented house. Bubka (Samadarshi Dutt) is an aspiring artist who comes to Kolkata from the suburbs. He does odd jobs for a living. He lies to his nagging girlfriend Koel (Ridhima Ghosh) that he is a sales executive, simply to impress her. Koel constantly doubts Bubka and can't stand him talking to any other girl. Bubka is joined by two of his old friends (Sourav Chatterjee and Apurbo Roy), who also come to the city looking for jobs. They decide to stay at the same rented place, owned by an old man, Bulu-da (Paran Bandyopadhyay). As days pass by, Bubka and his friends fail to find employment. One day an angry Bulu-da shows his disapproval of their stay without paying the rent for months together. He prods them to go out and earn, even kidnap if they wish to earn quick bucks. Confused and threatened, Bubka's two friends end up kidnapping four kids — one girl and three boys. All hell breaks loose when they discover one of the boys to be Koel's nephew. Bubka and Bulu-da are furious at their foolishness. However, they try their best to keep the kids safe — away from prying eyes. In no time, the children become a part of the household and began to enjoy there. They simply refuse to go home even when Bubka insists that they should. Later on, the three friends get success in their professional lives as well . The rest of the film also includes a real life comic kidnapper, 'Top Up Bhai' (Shantilal Mukherjee) who intends to kidnap the 3 children, but ends up being caught himself.

Bhooter Bhabishyat - though it is a ghost story, it is meant to be a comic entertainer. The story is about a haunted house which is being pulled down and being replaced with a swanky shopping mall. Apparently, the ghosts who belong to different era consider this as their home so what happens later on shapes the rest of the story.

Non-resident Bengali Radhika (Bipasha Basu) marries the thespian poet Indranil Mitra (Prosenjit Chatterjee) to settle in Kolkata. While Indranil continues his surveillance of the surreal world of words, rhythms, rhymes and imaginations Radhika single-handedly pulls out the private and public aspects of conjugal life. Radhika gets wholesome support from their housemaid Priyobala Das (also called Nondor ma). While the apparently irresponsible and introverted Indranil does one menace after other (like quitting his job after getting an award), Radhika stands like a rock to make the family financially sound.

Siddharth Mathur (Sharman Joshi), a shy young scientist, travels to Mauritius for his elder brother Harsh's (Sanjay Suri) wedding.

Also travelling is Siddharth's cheery father Navin (Boman Irani), whose sole entertainment is pulling Gayatri's leg. Harsh, pre-occupied with work, can spend little time with his family and it is left to his fiancée Aaliyah (Chitrangada Singh) to show them around Mauritius before the wedding. However, Ma's anger at Harsh ensures that she takes an instant dislike for Aaliyah, and it is Aaliyah and Siddharth who end up spending loads of time together. This, added to the fact that Aaliyah feels neglected by the career-obsessed Harsh, leads to them being irresistibly drawn to each other. A horrified Siddharth battles this attraction desperately, but Aaliyah has fallen madly in love and pursues him with single-minded determination. When Siddharth’s defences start crumbling and Ma starts getting suspicious, all hell breaks loose in the Mathur family.
