Ajay Devgan
Gopal is a tough guy, the orphan for whom the hostel room has been home for a long time. Whether it?s collecting money for the Dean?s Cancer Relief Fund, or selling exam papers at a discounted rate, or conning the Dean with the ?chaddi pe gaddi free? type of whacko schemes, he?s the mastermind behind all the cons and scams. A natural leader, a born bully, he always gets what he wants and sometimes what he hasn?t bargained for! For instance, when he decides on a foolproof plan to ensure a palatial roof over their four heads, he doesn?t know he?ll end up giving playback for his friend Laxman!
Arshad Warsi
Madhav wishes he could be like Gopal. He acts tough and talks tough like him, but can never quite get it right. He?s not sure whether he hates Gopal or admires him. Neither is he happy being Gopal?s chief lieutenant, but he has no choice. His ambition is to get into films but he hasn?t had any luck so far. His ideas of wooing Nirali are also total non starters ? first he leaks petrol from her car to ensure she loses a prestigious race, then he presents her with a roll of toilet paper with a contract written on it offering her the heroine?s role in his forthcoming film!
Paresh Rawal
Somnath may be blind but he?s certainly not dumb. He may sound stern, but he loves his Mangalaji dearly, because it?s only for her sake that he?s accepted a grandson who he?s not seen in years. His smartness is obvious, considering he?s been successful in keeping himself and his wife out of harm?s way for so long. He?s smart enough to evade robbers and catch out lies. But will he be able to outsmart four extra smart guys, who?ve decided to take permanent abode in his house under a false pretext?
Tusshar
Lucky is part and parcel of the gang ? he cons and cheats like the rest ? though he never utters a word. And when he does, nobody understands what he?s saying, for he is the ?bina volume ka TV!? Always misunderstood, or rather never understood, he is the loyal follower, the one who can always be counted on by his friends to do their bidding. But then Lucky falls in love and everything changes for him, and for the others. Now Lucky wants to be the star, the hero. He not only wants to be seen, he wants to be heard as well.
Rimmi
Nirali would like nothing better than to sing and dance to her heart?s content and eat the achar made by dadi all day long. But she is a realist and knows that what she loves doing will not necessarily pay her bills. So out of sheer necessity, she is training to become a fashion designer. Independent and spunky, she has no hang-ups about racing in a rally or rehearsing for a play with male friends or staying as a paying guest in a house. Yet, when four guys invade her space on Valentine?s Day, bearing weird gifts and all professing to be madly in love with her, this fearless girl is totally at a loss.
Sharman Joshi
Laxman wants to study, wants to be a good guy, wants to fulfil his mother?s dreams and become a collector. But all his good intentions come to naught, for with friends like these, does he need enemies? They stay in his hostel room, even their entry into a mansion is thanks to him ? yet he?s the one stuck with the worst bed or no bed. They eat like kings, he swallows crumbs. His friends take the lead in all the nefarious deeds, but he?s the one who gets caught. He?s a simple, straight guy who?d love nothing better than a simple, straight life. But bullied by friends like these, what chance does he have?
