The plot
Bollywood's love for infants getting exchanged during birth time is one of their favourite concepts. As the film is a remake of the popular Telegu film, Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo' Shehzada, Kartik Aaryan film starts with 'Bachaa Badlu' Valmiki (Paresh Rawal) who has exchanged his kid with his multi-millionaire Employer Jindalls' (Ronit Roy) stating the reason that if not him then his child will lead a luxurious lifestyle.
Bantu's (Kartik Aaryan) learns the truth. While Jindal's son (Ankur Rathee) gets the shock of his life. The drama begins when Ankur Rathee and Kartik Aaryan are out there to prove who is the heir of Jindal. There is drama, emotions galore, a nepotism angle well monologed by star Kartik, romance and dance. Netizens seem impressed with Kartik Aaryan's version of Salman Khan's 'Character Dheela'.
