Awara Paagal Deewana is an action comedy, which revolves
around a dentist who accidentally gets trapped into underworld and goes in for a
roller coaster ride. A mafia don (Om Puri) dies and leaves behind such a will
which starts an unending war between Guru Gulab Khatri (Akshay Kumar), don's
son-in law and Vikrant (Rahul Dev), don's only son. Guru Gulab is married to
Vikrant's stepsister Preeti (Preeti Jhangiani). The don's legal will, which also
includes diamonds worth hundred crores kept in a foreign bank, has to be equally
divided between these three and to claim the diamonds from the bank all three
all three have to be present at the bank and personally sign the papers. In
event of death of any of the inheritors' death, a death certificate has to be
produced to the bank. The will factor vertically splits the gang in two. Vikrant
and Guru Gulab become rivals. Vikrant wrongly implicates Guru Gulab in a very
serious crime, which forces him to flee out of the India. Guru Gulab leaves
India for America and comes to stay in the neighbourhood of Dr. Anmol Acharya (Aftab
Shivdasani). Meanwhile in India, Vikrant announces grand prize money to those
who tell him the whereabouts of Guru. Anmol's greedy wife Mona (Amrita Arora)
forces him to meet Vikrant in India and inform him about Guru Gulab and collect
the prize money. Anmol comes to India with his father-in- law (Paresh Rawal) and
the moment they step into India they are picked up by Choto Chhatri (Johny
Lever), who takes them to a local goon, Eaida Anna (Sunil Shetty). Anna strikes
a deal with Vikrant that he'll kill Guru and acquire the prize money offered by
him. Vikrant gives him the contract. So Anmol returns, not with prize money but
with Anna and Chota Chhatri, and others have this wrong notion that Anna is just
interested in the petty contract money. His interest lies in the diamonds worth
hundred crores…!! So this race to reach the diamonds becomes deadlier and all
three powers - Vikrant, Guru and Anna clash. And the rule of this race is to
kill the other contestants to win the race!!! "
