Plot
Priya Malhotra is an orphan living in who hopes to have a family of her own and keeps a diary outlining her dreams and the type of man she wants to meet – someone who does not drink, smoke, or tell lies. She is skeptical when her friend Honey's aunt, a card reader, Sunita Rao, predicts that she will go to a foreign land and find the love of her life in seven days. She is pleasantly surprised when she was selected to go to the Youth Festival in .

That is where Immy enters. Immy is the complete opposite of what Priya wants in a guy. He smokes, drinks, and lies. Due to his bad habits, Immy is being chased by security, and he runs into Priya's hostel room to hide. Before he leaves, he sees Priya and falls in love with her. He takes her diary and escapes. He then pretends to be the guy Priya wants to be with, and the two start a relationship. Soon enough, Priya spots her diary in his room and realises he had stolen her diary and pretended to be like her dream man. She breaks up with him and returns to to forget about her past.

After she reaches the airport, Immy also arrives and explains to her that destiny wants them together. Priya does not believe him and therefore challenges him that if destiny did want them together, they would both find each other again in the future. In order to prove it, she asks Immy to write his name and phone number on a currency note and uses it to buy a book, in which she writes her own name and phone number, and then she sells it in a market. Additionally, Priya takes Immy to a hotel, where they both take separate lifts. If both of them press the same button in the elevator, it will prove that destiny brought them together. Although Priya and Immy press the same button, Immy's lift slows down because a child entered the lift and pressed all the buttons. As a result, Immy could not meet Priya. Now, it was all up to the currency note and the numerology book to come back to Priya and Immy, respectively, for them to get back together.

Three years later, Immy is engaged to Sofiya, and Priya is engaged to Jatin, as the latter (Priya) has been living in . However, a week before the marriage, both of them land up in Delhi and Mumbai — Priya goes to Delhi while Immy goes to Mumbai — where they were trying to look for each other. Priya's search is hindered by the fact that she does not know Immy's real name. After several near misses, Priya finds the currency note, and Immy finds the book after he returns to Delhi. They find each other, which is when Immy reveals his real name is Amit. The film ends with both of them reuniting and getting married.

Rajeev Masand of gave the film a rating of 1.5 out of 5 and described the film as "regressive, senseless, and packed with plot-holes the size of craters". of Bollywood Hungama rated it 2/5 and said, " Milenge Milenge has the charismatic lead pair, who are very popular with the youth, as its USP. But the problem is its dated look. Having taken a long time to reach the theatres, it will have to rely on a solid word of mouth to lure the audiences into cineplexes". Mayank Shekhar of the gave it 1.5/5 saying, "Years since, while the film's main pair may not be friends anymore, have probably knocked each other off their Facebook pages, trashed old kissing pics, tucked away the sweet SMSes, they can't quite disown a new release that celebrates them still. Well. Sucks. I guess!". Gaurav Malani of Indiatimes gave the film 2/5 and stated, "Watch it only if you are just interested to see Kareena Kapoor when the term size zero wasn't coined. Else Milenge Milenge doesn't score too much above zero".
