Baat Gayi is a film about three couples and a keen observation on the modern day marriage.
Rahul wakes up with a bad hangover after a party the night before. There he had met a sexy young woman Sophia. They got drunk and there were sparks flying. But Rahul doesn’t remember what happened after that. Did they…go all the way?
His wife, Mitali, is in a particularly bad mood and Rahul suspects that she might know about his little escapade last night. Rahul starts chasing his night – trying to retrieve it – trying to find out what really happened.
His friends Saxena and Amit are going through their own marital crisis of sorts. Driven to his wits end, he realizes that he must seek Sophia out to restore his sanity.

A comedy of errors and manners, there’s something very classical yet fresh about Indian director/actor Saurabh Shukla’s new film. And while it doesn’t bat one hundred percent, it’s an honest little take on the breakdown of communication that can happen within relationships.
Rahul (Rajat Kapoor) and his wife, Mitali (Iravati Harshe) attend a big bash for a writer friend, and it is here that Rahul encounters the enchanting Sophia (Neha Dhupia, a former Miss India). There’s little doubt that these two have a connection, a real spark, that they coyly disentangle throughoutthe night . Things escalate, alcohol plays its part, and Rahul wakes up the next morn with no clear recollection of last’s night events and a livid wife.
The film is structured around putting the puzzle that is the party back together, with Rahul visiting his goofball pal Amit (Vinay Pathak), who was also at the party. Amit also happens to be dealing with marriage issues of his own, when his wife, Nandini (Anu Menon) stumbles on a little internet pornography he’s been ogling.
