STORY
Karan (Saif Ali Khan) is a cartoonist and a self-styled ladies' man. His daily comic, "Hum Tum," explores the battle of the sexes. On a plane from Delhi to New York, he meets Rhea (Rani Mukerji), but she doesn't seem the least bit interested in him. His feeble attempts at flirting go nowhere, but when they have a stopover in Amsterdam, she agrees to spend a few hours exploring the city with him. Karan quickly learns he has little in common with the feisty but proper Rhea, but he won't give up. He ends their contentious time together with an unwelcome kiss. Rhea is outraged and storms off, but Karan insists they'll meet again. And months later in New York, he spots her in the park, and she causes a scene with his girlfriend, which ends in the break-up between Karan and his current girlfriend. Karan and Rhea don't see each other again.

Rhea is marrying Sameer (Abhishek Bachchan).They bicker again, but this time, they part on good terms. Years later in Paris, Karan is visiting his father (Rishi Kapoor), when he runs into Rhea again. He learns from Rhea's mother (Kiron Kher) that Sameer has died in a car crash, and he sets out to help her reclaim her positive outlook on life. Sensing that she needs to be with a straight-laced, "boring guy", he conspires with Rhea's mother to fix her up with his shy best friend, Mihir (Jimmy Shergill). Things don't go as planned, and Karan and Rhea find themselves forced to confront their feelings for each other. They spend a night together (though in Indian releases, this scene was cut) and, suspecting they have ruined their relationship forever, Karan leaves Rhea, but later realizes his mistake and tries to find her, but she has disappeared.
