Plot

Fundoo and Bony, two struggling mechanical engineering students who failed to graduate, survive through small-time scams and thefts. After attending a party celebrating their classmates' successful careers, they encounter Baba, an eccentric anti-establishment figure who convinces them to rob a bank branch at their college. Baba specifically instructs them to target the locker of the college dean PMS, believing it contains something valuable. Using their engineering knowledge, Fundoo and Bony devise a plan to enter the locker room through underground water pipes. However, the robbery goes wrong when they discover that the lockers have already been looted and the police are waiting at the scene. They are arrested and interrogated by officer Bobby, a police inspector with a background in mechanical engineering.

PMS reveals to politician Netaji that an item known as the Kohinoor has been stolen from his locker. Netaji, under pressure from businessman Baba Ji of Akhand Bharat Sansthan, hires former commando Lovely Singh to recover it. Meanwhile, the actual robbery is traced to two criminals, Raju and Bhola, who had stolen the valuables to repay a debt to gangster Baalu Bhaiya. As multiple groups search for the missing Kohinoor, betrayals and killings follow. Baalu Bhaiya is murdered by Lovely Singh, while Sapna, associated with Raju and Bhola, is killed after revealing information about the stolen bag. Fundoo and Bony are eventually drawn back into the search after Baba learns that the Kohinoor is hidden near an abandoned farmhouse.

When the bag is recovered, the Kohinoor is revealed not to be a diamond but a diary containing evidence of corruption involving Akhand Bharat Sansthan and a chemical formula used in the company's products. Bobby investigates the organisation and discovers evidence of a substance designed to create addiction among consumers. Fundoo, Bony and Bobby travel to a laboratory connected to Akhand Bharat Sansthan, where they are attacked by Lovely Singh. Baba intervenes and kills Lovely. The corruption scandal is later exposed, leading to the arrest of Baba Ji. Fundoo and Bony profit financially after betting against Akhand Bharat's shares, while Bobby later becomes a mother through in vitro fertilisation with Baba as the sperm donor. The film ends with Baba, Fundoo and Bony celebrating their success together.
