Plot
Damadamm is about the life of Sameer, a writer who writes scripts for Indian films. He works with his girlfriend, Shikha at the industry. Shikha is totally over-possessive over Sameer, and suspects him all the time. Due to a speciality, Sameer cannot dump her either. He has no idea how to get rid of Shikha's suspicion, until one day her family invites her over for a relatives' wedding. She leaves for a few weeks, and until then, Sameer gets his total freedom. He drinks; parties and even flirts with random girls. One day, a new girl Sanjana enters into his office and it is love at first sight for both of them. The two are then assigned to work together on a film, but Sameer has to be careful, as Sanjana is his boss' younger sister. Whilst working together, Sameer and Sanjana start to fall in love.

During this, Sameer even starts to ignore Shikha's phone calls. Getting fed up, Shikha arrives back home, when she sees how close Sameer and Sanjana have gotten within 15 days she gets jealous, causing an argument with Sameer and the two break up. She then starts friendship with Sameer, after his boss arranges for Sameer and Sanjana's wedding. But before the wedding Sameer eventually realises he truly loved Shikha and cannot live without her, so he breaks the marriage with Sanjana. Therefore, his boss sacks him, whereas Sameer replies that he would rather pick his girlfriend Shikha then his work. Sameer manages to convince Shikha to give him another chance.

Later, the boss rehires both Sameer and Shikha and even throws them a party. (The film ends with celebrations and the song "Umrao Jaan").

Reception
Taran Adarsh of Bollywood Hungama gave the film 2 out of 5, writing, "On the whole, DAMADAMM isn't bad, but it isn't great either. Though it has a hit score to its credit and some endearing moments, it will have to rely on a strong word of mouth to withstand a mighty opponent (Ra.One)." Mayank Shekhar of Hindustan Times added, "This film actually has a darn good script"

Dainik Bhaskar reviews it as "The story is simple, predictable with pinch of humour and emotions. This love saga is something anyone would have watched millions of times, however, what's noteworthy is the placement of the sequences which are successful in letting the story be a simple one and not complicating it further".

Soundtrack
The film's original soundtrack has been composed by Reshammiya and Sachin Gupta while the lyrics are penned by Sameer, Sachin Gupta and Shabbir Ahmed. Damadamm! was called one of the top 11 soundtracks of 2011 by Bollywood Hungama
