'Yes Boss' is also little from bollywood film 'For love or money'.
I don't know much details about the same, but i saw it on HBO.
Also made as "Three to Tango" with Matthew Perry, Neve Campbell and the dude from "The Practice".
Dunno about "The Apartment" connection, but 'Yes Boss' is lifted from a Michael J. Fox movie "For the Love of Money". Only difference is that the protagonist works as a concierge in the original and an ad-agency lackey in the ripoff.
I think it was heavily inspired by For love or Money as Ambar mentioned. All the other movies mentioned share the same theme, but "Yes Boss" was a straight lift from the Michael J Fox movie, including many scenes that were copied straight. However, "Yes Boss" was more entertaining than the movie it was inspired from.

Good film to copy.
I love Indian movie like eating food
Well if you actually notice.. "Life in a Metro" is also a bit similar to "the apartment"
