The couple is in their 80s, but still love each other. Rajabhau is young at heart, whereas his wife nudges him to accept his age & come to terms with it.

Rajabhau Joshee and Malati Joshee are a happily married couple for 50 years. Their son, Dilip Joshee, is settled in England. Rajabhau is upset and adamant for this move, since the British ruled India for over 150 years. In his adolescence, Rajabhau wanted to get into the Indian Army, but failed to do so.

Dilip wants his parents to visit him in England and receive the award for the Most-Perfect Couple. Rajabhau tries to cancel this plan by antics with the help of his friend Tenya. So decides to walk down the memory lane with his wife and mother and decide whether they are the perfect match or not. In the process, they reveal each other's small secrets, which bring happy moments to the trio.
