A flashback shows that Charan Grover met Manohar and gave him a contract to build an impenetrable vault, Shaalimar. The group refuses, but Charlie re-motivates the group, convincing them to become a dance team. The team finds out that room 9C, connected to the vault through a duct system, is booked for teams participating in the World Dance Championship (WDC). Tammy is the only one who can open the vault. To accomplish this, he assembles a dynamic team consisting of Ex-Captain Jagmohan "Jag" Prakash, a hard-of-hearing strongman, Tehamton Tammilo "Tammy" Irani (Boman Irani), an old and seizure-prone safecracker and Manohar's best friend, Rohan Singh, a young intelligent hacker and Jag's nephew, and a lookalike of Charan's son Vicky Grover named Nandu Bhide. He wants to steal the same emeralds and frame Grover. Charlie finds that emeralds worth 300 crore ($39.48 million) will reach the Atlantis Hotel, Dubai on Christmas Eve. Grover labelled Charlie's father, Manohar Sharma, a businessman as a thief because Grover had conned Manohar into stealing his own diamonds worth $15 million.
