One day, all six of them receive a text message informing them that they are now the owners of Shahenshah Jaiswal's 10-billion-rupee company. However, their happiness is short-lived when they discover that the company owes 1.2 billion rupees. They are placed under house arrest until the debt is repaid. The six friends decide to use extra fabric left over from a failed shipment to South Korea to make affordable garments for ordinary people. They display these in a fashion show, which is a success. The bank agrees to help them repay the debt, enabling them to turn the company around. The film ends with Bobby and Ashima's wedding. ==Cast==

Reception
Critical reception Rajeev Masand of CNN-IBN rated it 2/5: "Sorely lacking in drama and genuine humour, Money Hai Toh Honey is mind-numbingly dull because there’s no conflict or plot progression, and everything seems to fall into place too conveniently, which even ruins the amazing comedy at the first half!" Mayank Shekhar of Hindustan Times rated it 2.5/5: "Scenes may well be dull and weak in parts. And they are. But for a comedy film, it needs to have some more sense-of-humor". Raja Sen of Rediff rated it 1.5/5: "This is, first and foremost, a tacky film. The tastelessness flowing right down into the script, however, makes for a very different league of disaster." Taran Adarsh of Bollywood Hungama rated it 2/5: "Money Hai Toh Honey Hai is a poor show. Watch the first half and laugh your total head-off, but at the second half, try to enjoy a damp squib!" Nikhat Kazmi of The Times of India gave it the highest rating it got: 3.5/5: "Money Hai Toh Honey made a complete laugh-riot in the first part, but soon after the interval a lot of drama and romance jumps in which is totally something you don't need in a comedy movie, it needed a much smarter script to keep the laughter ringing". ==References==
