Cherry(Parvin Dabas) (who does not like his name and wishes to change it), younger son Balwant a.k.a. Bunty(Ranvir Shorey), and his daughter.

He is a software engineer and, although a source of pride for his father, he finds his current lifestyle too drab and has planned to shift to the US by taking up a job there. However, he has not let his family in on his plans. The only person Cherry discusses his plan with are Asif Iqbal (Vinay Pathak), the agent helping him with his passport and visa paperwork.
