Ramvilas Sharma ([[Vinay Pathak]]) has just ended his live-in relationship with his girlfriend Sanjana Mahadik ([[Mahie Gill]]).

<br />
Unknown to Ram, Sanjana is having an affair with gangster Lucky Sardana (also played by [[Vinay Pathak]]). When Sanjana realizes that Lucky is using 5 crore of his money to buy a flat for his wife, Nimmi ([[Delnaaz Paul]]), she absconds with the money.<br />
<br />
Sanjana decides to take Nandu's help in recovering her passport from Ram's place so that she can leave the country with the money.

=== Critical reception ===<br />
Utt Pataang received mixed reviews from critics. [[Taran Adarsh]] from [[Bollywood Hungama]] gave it 3 out of 5 stars saying "It has a novel premise and what makes it even more appealing is the way the subject material has been executed".<ref>{{cite web|title=Taran Adarsh – Utt Pataang review |url=http://www.bollywoodhungama.com/moviemicro/cast/id/541265|publisher=[[Bollywood Hungama]]|access-date=4 Feb 2011}}</ref> [[Namrata Joshi]] of [[Outlook India]] also gave it 3 out of 5 but said "No doubt the director wants to make the story-telling deep and complex but it gets unnervingly complicated and needlessly heavy and tedious. The dialogue is crisp and some scenes have a deadpan humour".<ref>{{cite web|title=Namrata Joshi – Utt Pataang review|url=http://www.outlookindia.com/article.aspx?270314|publisher=[[Outlook India]]|access-date=4 Feb 2011}}</ref> Nikhat Kazmi from [[Times of India]] rated it 2.5/5 and said "Another fair is foul-foul is fair drama that has energetic bits and pieces amidst some mediocre stuff." She further stated "the narrative structure which might seem innovative to few but gets clunky and incoherent for the average viewer who might just lose patience trying to keep pace with the back and forth jumps."<ref>{{cite web|title=Nikhat Kazmi – Utt Pataang review |url=http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/entertainment/movie-reviews/hindi/Utt-Pataang/movie-review/7419569.cms|publisher=[[Times of India]]|access-date=4 Feb 2011}}</ref> Renuka Rao from [[DNA India]] gave it 2.5/5 and said "Watch Utt Pataang not for sheer entertainment but for the way it pulls you into its story. An enjoyable film, Utt Pataang is definitely paisa vasool".<ref>{{cite web|title=Renuka Rao – Utt Pataang review |url=http://www.dnaindia.com/entertainment/review_review-utt-pataang-is-a-bizarre-comedy-of-errors_1502930|publisher=[[DNA India]]|access-date=4 Feb 2011}}</ref> Mayank Shekhar of [[Hindustan Times]] rated it 1.5/5 saying "You'd imagine someone read this script and thought the supposed page-turner would make for another low-budget comic hit. They didn't bother to apply any cinema at all".<ref>{{cite web|title=Mayank Shekhar – Utt Pataang review |url=http://www.hindustantimes.com/News-Feed/mayankshekhar/Mayank-Shekhar-s-review-Utt-Patang/Article1-658648.aspx|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110207102744/http://www.hindustantimes.com/News-Feed/mayankshekhar/Mayank-Shekhar-s-review-Utt-Patang/Article1-658648.aspx|url-status=dead|archive-date=7 February 2011|publisher=[[Hindustan Times]]|access-date=4 Feb 2011}}</ref><br />
