He ends up spending the evening with this idiot, Bharat Bhushan (Vinay Pathak) who tries to help him get his wife Sheetal (Sarika) back who left him earlier that day.The result is utter chaos let loose by the idiot, who cannot do a single thing without messing it up further. The plot turns around to be a series of mini disasters that leave Ranjeet's comfortable life in ruins. Call it the idiot revenge!


Director's Note

Bheja Fry is an extremely funny, sensitive film which takes a peek into the lives of a certain group of urban individuals, belonging to different classes & emotional backgrounds. If on one hand the story revolves around the endearing character of Bharat Bhushan & his unpredictable goof ups, then on the other its a voyage of self realization for Ranjeet Thadani who discovers his love for his wife Sheetal through a journey of laughter pain & frustration. Mistaken identities, garbled messages & other assorted oddball occurrences make the film suitably madcap. If you have not watched Bheja Fry you have laughed less this year!
