Now they should fake their relationship because Prem needs to fix his tarnished reputation and Kareena needs a fiancée to convince her father to give the money he saved for her marriage to pay for their family house which has sentimental value for her.

Their childish behaviour was supposed to be comedic, but it only succeeded in annoying the hell out of me.
