Ladies vs Ricky Bahl follows a classic three-act structure. In Act I, we meet Ricky Bahl (Ranveer Singh), a charming, athletic, and intelligent con artist who poses as different personas to woo wealthy, successful women. His victims include a demanding Delhi heiress (Parineeti Chopra), a middle-aged art dealer (Aditi Sharma), and a shy, hardworking Lucknow-based girl (Anushka Sharma). Act II sees the three women discover they have been conned and, with the help of a forthright colleague, plot a counter-con.
