Aman Tripathi (Jitendra Kumar) and Kartik Singh (Ayushmann Khurrana) are gay and love each other. Aman is an advertiser from an orthodox middle-class family in Allahabad. Aman's parents are Shankar Tripathi (Gajraj Rao) a conservative agricultural scientist who recently created a new variety of black cauliflowers and Sunaina Tripathi (Neena Gupta) a housewife. Sunaina wants Aman/Guddu to wed neighbor's daughter Kusum (Pankhuri Awasthy), who already thinks of Aman as her husband. Shankar's brother is Chaman Tripathi (Manu Rishi), his wife Champa Tripathi (Sunita Rajwar) and daughter Goggle/Rajni Tripathi (Maanvi Gagroo).

Aman and Karthik help their friend Devika (Bhumi Pednekar) run away from her house. The whole Mohalla is now after them and both decide to attend Aman's cousin sisters (Goggle) wedding in Allahabad to lie low for a few weeks. Aman and Kartik board the train "Vivah Express", on which Aman's family are already present. On the train, Aman and Kartik share a kiss, but are caught by Shankar. Pretty soon Shankar sees Aman and Karthik kissing and can't believe his own eyes. He falls unconscious. Kartik suggests that Aman should come out to his father. Shankar asks Aman to stay away from Kartik. The doctor questions Sunaina's cooking, who in turn questions the contribution of Champa who has been living in her house for 35 years. Champa questions the lack of support from Shankar to Chaman for completing his law degree. Finally, Sunaina accuses Champa's family of eating omelet at her own wedding, which hurts Champa.

Aman is very afraid to talk to his dad, while Karthik wants him to have a discussion and sort it out. At Goggle's wedding, Shankar tries to keep Kartik and Aman away from each other but fails. Shankar keeps staring at Karthik throughout the wedding, to the extent that Aman kisses Karthik kisses Aman in front of everyone. Meanwhile, Ashok refuses to marry Goggle due to Aman's sexuality.

Kartik is whisked away by Chaman to the railway station; while Shankar blackmails Aman into agreeing to marry Kusum. Goggle is distraught at the wedding being called off and heads to railway tracks to commit suicide. Karthik spots her and stops her. Goggle tells him not to leave his love alone and reveals that she knew from childhood that Aman was gay. There is a serious fight between Shankar and Chaman. Chaman accuses Shankar of being insensitive towards Goggle and making her blind in one eye during her childhood, due to which she never wed. Shankar accuses Chaman of watching porn which he says is why Aman turned gay.

Back in Allahabad, Kusum tells Aman that she loves another guy, who steals cars in Meerut. She wants Aman to wed her, so she can continue her affair with the love of her life. Shankar and Sunaina decide to rechristen Aman in order to cleanse him of his "sins". Returning to Allahabad, the family is in the middle of rechristening when Goggle and Kartik appear at their home. Shankar beats Kartik up with a stick, rendering him unconscious. Goggle at the same time fights with her parents and protests that she does not want to marry.

Aman tells Shankar that he is willing to marry Kusum if they all leave Karthik alone. Karthik wants Aman to stand up for their love, but Aman is unable to fight against his family.

On the day of the wedding, Shankar and Sunaina learn that the Supreme Court is going to deliver its judgment on the decriminalization of homosexuality the next day. They fight over their past lovers and realize that they have been living with each other without any feelings for one other. They feel that they do not want the same for their son, but decide to proceed with the wedding anyway, thinking that everything will be fine after the wedding. Shankar is afraid of social convention and stays the course.

Kartik opens up one of Shankar's black cauliflowers and shows him that it is full of worms. He personifies the cauliflower as Shankar and the worms as his nature. Meanwhile, Kusum steals all of Sunaina's jewelry and escapes, leaving behind a letter in Aman's room. Kartik reads the letter and disguises as the 'bride'. Goggle finds this out and decides to help Aman and Kartik.

During the ceremony, Shankar suspects something is wrong, and inadvertently chases the "bride", when Kartik suddenly reveals himself to everyone's surprise. Goggle then hands over Kusum's note to Sunaina, shocking everyone. Aman confesses his love for Kartik in front of his family and says that he knew his family were never going to understand him. He asks Shankar if their father-son relationship will change in any way just because he loves Kartik. He tells Sunaina that she had lost her son long before she lost her jewelry. At that moment, the police arrive to arrest Aman and Kartik, they caught Kusum trying to board a bus with the stolen jewelry, who in turn revealed to the police that Aman and Kartik are gay.

The family tries to stop the police, but they refuse to leave that night saying Aman and Kartik may escape and they have to follow the law. Kusum returns the jewelry to Sunaina, who realizes that her son's happiness is more important and gives all of the jewelry to Kusum. Goggle's parents realize that marriage is not the most important thing in the world and give her their approval to stay single if that is what she wants to do. Shankar opens up more of his black cauliflowers and realizes that all of them are full of worms, which in turn makes him realize that his beliefs need to change.

The next day, the Supreme Court in its landmark judgment, decriminalizes homosexuality. Aman and Kartik reconcile with the family and leave for Delhi. Shankar burns all of his black cauliflowers and drops Aman and Kartik at the railway station and tells them that even if he may not understand their love, he does not want Aman to stop living his life to its fullest. The final scene shows that Aman and Kartik will run until they can live their life happily.
