Aditya Singh, fondly called Adi Chachu or Adi Uncle (Shahid Kapoor) by the children of his brother, lives in a large mansion in Mumbai with his brother (Mohnish Behl), sister-in-law, sister and grandmother. He is the only one working in the family. He falls in love with a local teacher, Priya (Amrita Rao). They confess their feelings to each other and plan a wedding.

In afterlife, he meets The Hindu God of Death, Yamraj (Sanjay Dutt), a kind-hearted, emotional deity with designer clothes and an red old car. Yamraj allows Adi to go back to Earth as a ghost to stop his evil uncle (Prem Chopra) who wants to sell Adi's mansion to industrialist Hirachand (Sharat Saxena). Adi enlists the aid of Shakti, a little boy, in order to save his family home. They succeed with some further help from Yamraj, who then allows both Shakti and Aditya to return to life.
