- Life in Chunni's (Shweta Basu Prasad) village is all peace and quiet, and great fun. She fools the villagers including her parents (Father (Vijay Raaz)) with her impersonation of her twin sister, Munni. Chunni frequently impersonates Munni in front of their father to get double allowance for school. She rings the school bell before time.. She exchanges homework copies with Munni to get her into trouble (Chunni never did her homework) In the village, there is a mansion that is said to be haunted and legend goes that a witch called Makdee (Shabana Azmi) resides there. The legend has it that whosoever wanders into the mansion, comes out as an animal. No one in the village dares to enter the mansion. The local police, represented by 2 policemen, refuse to take any action and hide behind the fact that nobody is willing to enter the mansion to investigate the truth. They spread the myth even more with wild stories.
Things are going fine for Chunni until the day one of her pranks gets quite out of hand. Chunni, her sister Munni and her friend Mughal-e-Azam (Aalap Mazgaonkar) are constantly at the odds with the local butcher, Kallu (Makarand Deshpande). Mughal-e-Azam is the adopted son of Kallu and Chunni always tells Mughal-e-Azam that he should run away from Kallu, as he doesn't want a son, but a free hand to sweep his butcher shop daily. Kallu would not feed Mughal-e-Azam for the slightest issue and he would come to Chunni every night for food. One night, Chunni is fed up and she works with Mughal-e-Azam to release all the chickens of Kallu. Kallu captures Chunni, but she poses as Munni and tells Kallu to go after Munni (whom she says is Chunni)
Once Kallu chases Munni, Chunni's docile twin to the mansion mistaking her for Chunni in a fit of rage. As a result of this, Munni, her docile sister, enters the mansion, where presumably the witch has turned the little girl into a hen. Chunni is hysterical when she discovers this. She runs from pillar to post to get help, but her credibility is at an all-time low and the entire village refuses to believe her, so Chunni finally enters the haunted mansion alone to search for her sister.
In the mansion she comes face to face with the witch, she pleads with the witch to let her poor little sister go, as it was no fault of hers. But the witch asks her to strike a deal. She will turn Munni back into a human only if Chunni can acquire for her hundred hens in exchange. All of a sudden, Chunni is confronted with the biggest challenge of her life. She has to collect 100 hens, and pose as Chunni and Munni both at the same time.. Chunni is way behind on her target to supply 100 hens to the witch.. she has supplied only 8 in the last 15 days. So, when Kallu is away, she teams up with Mughal-e-Azam to steal the entire hen stock of Kallu and heads to the mansion. Chunni's school master finds her en-route. Masterji doesn't believe in witches, but is perplexed by Chunni's story and decides to investigate.
Chunni's school master (Daya Shankar Pandey) visits the mansion but a small puppy is seen exiting the mansion and people presume the witch has turned him into a puppy. Chunni goes into the mansion to beg the witches's forgiveness, and she demands a payment of 100 lamb for sending school master into the mansion. Mughal-e-Azam after spotting the puppy realizes it is his pet dog that had entered the mansion and has disappeared ever since. Its then Chunni realizes that all this was just a ruse. Makdee is not a witch and she does not really turn humans into animals; she merely locks them up and has some plans of her own. She is actually a con-woman who has been looking for a treasure that has been hidden in the village and so she abducts many children to dig up the place to find the treasure. She is accompanied by two policemen who are actually helping in her plan all the way.
However, as soon as Chunni finds the treasure, the con-woman traps everyone including the policemen in an attempt to flee the village. She is confronted by Kallu who enters her mansion in looking for the children. The kids and other people beat up the policemen for their notoriety and helps Chunni to stop the con-woman. The con-woman and Kallu are engaged in a brief fight before Chunni shows up and traps the woman in a similar way that she did to all the people. The con-woman falls into her own trap and gets beaten by the children. All the people locked up are finally freed and the village finds a new hero in Chunni.
