DHOL

Pankaj , Gautam, Sameer and Martand are roommates in Pune who are bound together by their ambition to make it big in life with the least effort possible. Each one tries his hand at finding a shortcut to success but ends up being in even deeper trouble. Things get worse when the four decide to take a loan at high interest which they are unable to pay back. They believe that the only way to get rich without working hard is to marry the wealthy girl in their neighborhood and each of the four friends embark on their individual plans to woo her.
