Plot
Raj Malhotra and Priya Malhotra meet by chance and fall in love after a whirlwind romance. They marry and reside in Switzerland, where they meet their Indian neighbors: the easygoing Vikram "Vicky" Bajaj and Diva Sonia Bajaj. The couples quickly become friends and go on a Christmas vacation together to Mauritius.
During their vacation, Raj sees Vikram kissing and looking intimate with another woman. A confused Raj becomes even more shocked as Sonia starts hitting on Raj, who awkwardly rejects her. Nonetheless, Raj is smitten with Sonia's figure, which Vikram finds out. As Sonia becomes more forward in her advances, Vicky manipulates the scenario leading to Raj and Sonia getting paired while himself (Vicky) getting paired with Priya. On the last day, Vicky casually talks to Raj about partner-swapping suggesting Raj to fulfill his lust with Sonia overnight and request Raj to let him (Vicky) fulfill his lust with Priya simultaneously, without their wives' knowledge, both of them enjoying each other's wives. Raj is disgusted by the offer, and an argument breaks out between the men. With Priya being unaware of the whole situation going around her, she manages to reconcile Raj and Vicky on the eve of Vicky's birthday a few days later. The two men celebrate by getting drunk together and sharing bottles of alcohol. Once again, Vikram asks whether he could become Raj for one night and tells Raj to become Vikram as a special birthday gift, which Raj rebuffs. Still, Vicky manages to trick an abbreviated Raj into sending him to his and Sonia's bedroom, while he happily goes on to Raj's house to meet Priya in the dead of night.
The next day Raj wakes up to find a partially clothed woman in bed with him and realizes he was tricked and is in Vicky's house. He quickly runs back to his house where he meets an over the top happy Priya. Raj enquires with Priya whether Vicky had come to their house last night Priya happily confirms Vicky coming over last night and Priya happily fulfilling Vicky's request as it was his birthday. She also tells Raj that she didn't want Vicky to feel offended on his birthday so she allowed Vicky to fulfill his request. Priya informs Raj that she won't allow these things to happen every night with Vicky and she will advice Sonia to keep Vicky under control. Priya also tells Raj that she is open for more such nights only on special occasions. Furious and weighed down by his own forgetfulness the previous night, Raj imagines Vicky successfully convincing Priya to continue the wife-swapping overnight by seducing Priya and them romancing each other with wild passion in every corner of the house and ending the night with Priya feeling aroused giving Vicky his birthday gift by allowing Vicky to have sex with Priya in her bedroom. Moments later Sonia is found dead and Raj is accused of her murder since his fingerprints are found on the murder weapon – an alcohol bottle. Vicky exclaims how the idea of wife swapping came from Raj, and while Vicky just spent the night in Raj's house, Raj tried to force Sonia and later killed her. Determined to prove his innocence, Raj manages to escape from the court and is chased by the Swiss police. He meets Priya, who eventually believes in his innocence and aids him in finding out what really happened. With help from one of his neighbors, the Malhotras find that Vicky entered the house on the supposed night with someone. They decide to search Vikram's house, only to be interrupted by Vikram(Vicky), who calls the police and then reveals that everything was planned in advance. Raj escapes in Vikram's car with Priya.
