Two men, complete Strangers to each other and diagonally opposite personalities, are traveling overnight, in a business class compartment in England. The claustrophobia of a closed space and the coincidence that they are both Indians, binds them to each other.

Mr Rai, the management giant and Rahul, a writer with a flop career, in their efforts to entertain each other throughout the journey, drop clues and fill in the missing pieces into stories that are never told unless, between complete Strangers. What follows is both exciting and repulsive as the two men who are living lives that they had not chosen, decide on doing something to change the way things have been for them.

But all is not as it seems and clues soon become betrayals until a time comes when deceit and lies cannot be judged any longer. Four lives are put at stake and everything is about to change when Strangers take each other for friends and friends become Strangers.

Uday Shetty (Nana Patekar), Majnu (Anil Kapoor) and their boss, Sikander (Feroz Khan) are basically three Hong Kong-based serio-comic mobsters, who are keen to get their sister Sanjana (Katrina Kaif) married into a respectable family.

Uday, who accidentally meets the handsome bachelor Rajiv (Akshay Kumar), gets convinced that the latter would be an appropriate match for Sanjana. However, Rajiv’s uncle, Dr. Ghunghroo (Paresh Rawal) disapproves of Uday’s association with a dubious family.

Meanwhile, Sanjana, who is totally unaware of her brother’s plans, meets Rajiv on a cruise and they fall in love. She has the acceptance of Dr. Ghunghroo, who is unaware of the fact that she is the sister of the mafia. When Dr. Ghunghroo realizes his faux pas, he tries to escape the fury of the brothers. What follows after that, is a commotion of comically funny situations, as each of the diametrically different brothers gets engaged in smart and comic stunts to get their uncle agree to the alliance.

The entire plot takes a U-turn when a stunning bombshell (Mallika Sherawat), arrives on the scene and claims to be Rajiv’s fiancée which only adds to the hullabaloo and chaos.

Synopsis:

Ishaan Awasthi is an eight-year-old whose world is filled with wonders that no one else seems to appreciate; colours, fish, dogs and kites are just not important in the world of adults, who are much more interested in things like homework, marks and neatness. And Ishaan just cannot seem to get anything right in class.

When he gets into far more trouble than his parents can handle, he is packed off to a boarding school to ‘be disciplined’. Things are no different at his new school, and Ishaan has to contend with the added trauma of separation from his family.

One day a new art teacher bursts onto the scene, Ram Shankar Nikumbh, who infects the students with joy and optimism. He breaks all the rules of ‘how things are done’ by asking them to think, dream and imagine, and all the children respond with enthusiasm, all except Ishaan. Nikumbh soon realizes that Ishaan is very unhappy, and he sets out to discover why. With time, patience and care, he ultimately helps Ishaan find himself.
