== Plot ==
Journalist Jayaganthan aka J.K. Boss ([[Arya (actor)|Arya]]), photographer Nagaraj ([[Santhanam (actor)|Santhanam]]) and Cheenu ([[Premgi Amaren|Premji]]) are roommates leading an unkempt and debt-ridden life in a shoddy apartment in Mumbai. J.K.'s ditsy fiancée, Madhumita ([[Hansika Motwani|Hansika]]), is an air hostess who agrees to deliver a package for Richard ([[Ashwin Mushran]]) to Guna ([[Nassar (actor)|Nassar]]), without realizing its contents or that Guna is a gangster. Madhumita asks J.K. to deliver the package. J.K., in turn, asks Nagaraj to do so. But Nagaraj is unable to do so as he is experiencing diarrhea after eating ''Ileana Chicken'' from a roadside eatery. Nagaraj hands Madhumita's package to Cheenu for delivery to Guna, along with a package containing his stool sample for delivery to Nagaraj's doctor. Cheenu mixes up the two packages which makes Guna furious and he starts the investigation by interrogating Vladimir.

Meanwhile, Nagaraj photographs his landlord ([[Ali (actor)|Ali]]) with a prostitute. He sends an envelope with the photographs to his landlord to blackmail him. J.K. is with Madhumita, and his colleague Shakthi ([[Anjali (film actress)|Anjali]]) calls him on the pretext of work. When he reaches the place, he realizes that it is just a party and Shakthi called him just to have fun. Rajeev, supposedly Shakthi's ex-husband, sees them together and gives J.K. a black-eye in a fit of jealousy. J.K. retaliates and knocks Rajeev out. As J.K. and Shakthi leave, they are chased by a furious Rajeev and his friends who shoot at them. The duo barely manages to escape.

Richard informs Guna that the mix-up must have been caused by Madhumita as she didn't know what she was carrying in the package. Guna calls Madhumita, informs her about the mix-up and asks her to give him the address of the person who had delivered the package. When J.K. arrives into his apartment, he walks into Guna, who has Cheenu standing on a stool with a noose around his neck. On a very hard interrogation, Guna discovers the mix-up and realizes that the package must be with Nagaraj's doctor.

Nagaraj gets the package from his doctor's office, wherein Guna finds his thirty diamonds hidden inside. Upon recovering his booty, he orders his henchmen to kill the three roommates. One of them is about to shoot J.K., when another kicks the stool on which Cheenu was standing to hang him. Luckily for the roommates, the ceiling of the apartment caves in, since it can't take Cheenu's weight. The cave-in injures and knocks-out Guna and his men. J.K., Cheenu and Nagaraj escape along with the diamonds and spend the night at Shakthi's place. The next day they sell the diamonds to a local jeweler.

As the roommates prepare to get out of town with the money, they get a call from Guna, who has kidnapped Madhumita. He threatens to kill her, if they don't return the diamonds. The trio, try to buy back the diamonds from the jewelry store, who demands a double payment for the sale amount.

Without the money, J.K. comes up with a plan. Nagaraj, Cheenu, J.K. and Shakthi disguise themselves as burglars and go back to the jewelry store. They con the owner, gag him and forcefully take back their diamonds and return his money. They make their get-away in J.K.'s car with the police on their tail and make their way to the hotel where Guna is holding Madhumita. As they are about to make the exchange with Guna, the police arrive at the hotel room. There is a shoot-out between the police and Guna's gang.

Nagaraj, Cheenu, J.K, Madhumitha and Richard who have hit the floor during the gunfight, are left as the only sole survivors. Shakthi is upset to learn about J.K.'s engagement and walks away from him. J.K. breaks off his engagement to Madhumitha. Later, it is revealed that Nagaraj did not return the cash to the jewelry store owner, and had kept the money for himself. The film ends when Shakthi comes to the roommates' apartment to return J.K.'s car's hubcap lost while escaping from Rajeev. J.K. jumps into her car through the open window and kisses her passionately.

=== Critical reception ===
S Saraswathi of Rediff gave the film 2 stars out of 5 and said: "Settai is, sadly, a great disappointment ... The director has ruined a perfectly good script and has given an absolutely boring version of the exciting and racy Delhi Belly. From beginning to end, the film follows the same pace and all the scenes are so boring and slow, you could actually sleep through the entire movie."<ref>{{cite web|last=S Saraswathi|date=5 April 2013|title=Review: Settai, not a patch on Delhi Belly|url=http://www.rediff.com/movies/review/review-settai-not-patch-on-delhi-belly/20130405.htm|work=Rediff Movies|accessdate=26 October 2016}}</ref> ''NewsTrackIndia'' gave 2.5 out of 5 stars and issued the verdict, "Settai misses the soul of the original".<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.newstrackindia.com/newsdetails/2013/04/06/104--Settai-misses-soul-of-original-Tamil-Movie-Review-.html |title='Settai' – misses soul of original (Tamil Movie Review) |publisher=Newstrackindia.com |date=6 April 2013 |accessdate=10 May 2013}}</ref> ''[[in.com]]'' rated it 2.5 out of 5 and stated "Settai is watered down version of Delhi Belly and lacks the punch of the original".<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.in.com/news/entertainment/movie-review-settai-lacks-the-punch-of-the-original-50204098-in-1.html |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130409230043/http://www.in.com/news/entertainment/movie-review-settai-lacks-the-punch-of-the-original-50204098-in-1.html |url-status=dead |archive-date=9 April 2013 |title=Movie review: Settai lacks the punch of the original! |publisher=In.com |date=6 April 2013 |accessdate=10 May 2013}}</ref> [[Oneindia]] gave the film 2.5 out of 5 stars and delivered a verdict, "The film works only in parts. The adult comedy which made the original film 'Delhi Belly' a blockbuster has been completely toned down in this version".<ref>{{cite web|author=Shanmugan |url=http://entertainment.oneindia.in/tamil/reviews/2013/settai-movie-review-106960.html |title=Settai Movie Review |work=Oneindia |date=6 April 2013 |accessdate=10 May 2013}}</ref>
''Behindwoods'' also gave 2.5 out of 5 saying "The first half is slow and the Agalathey number although good in looks and presentation, impedes the proceedings in second half. The scenes evoke smile but not laughter. Santhanam has become repetitive".<ref name="behindwoods.com"/> Shailesh K Nadar of CinemaSpice.in rated Settai as 3/5 mentioning in his review that "It’s not bad, but would have been a better entertainer by following the essence of the original more faithfully. In short, Settai is a joyride – but only if you haven’t seen Delhi Belly." [[Baradwaj Rangan]] of the Hindu wrote "Those who haven’t seen Delhi Belly will probably find all this fresh, while for the rest of us the sole saving grace is Santhanam’s brand of comedy...the rhyming gags aren’t exactly new, but the zingers keep coming at such a pace that even with a fifty per cent success rate, we’re still left with some amusement. He’s labelled “Comedy Super Star,” and for once the hype seems justified."<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.thehindu.com/features/cinema/cinema-reviews/settai-belling-the-scat/article4588175.ece|title=Settai: Belling the scat
