Storyline
In Sultanpur, a picturesque village in Pakistan administered Kashmir, villagers gather to watch a televised cricket match between India and Pakistan. Among them is a pregnant woman (Meher Vij) who, after giving birth, names her daughter Shahida after Shahid Afridi, the player who wins the game for Pakistan. One afternoon, Shahida (Harshaali Malhotra), now six years old, falls off a cliff, but is saved by an overhanging tree. Her worried mother takes her to the shrine of Sufi saint Nizamuddin Auliya in Delhi, with the hope that it will cure Shahida's speechlessness.
Returning from Delhi, the train stops for repairs and Shahida gets off to play with a lamb. Unbeknownst to Shahida, the train drives off. Shahida boards a freight train, and winds up in Kurukshetra in the state of Haryana. There, she meets Pawan Kumar Chaturvedi alias Bajrangi (Salman Khan), a devout Brahmin and an ardent devotee of the Hindu deity Hanuman. He calls Shahida "Munni" and tries in vain to find where she lives.
In sequences of flashback, it is revealed that Bajrangi has been a disappointment to his father, because Bajrangi failed his school exams ten times. When Bajrangi finally graduates on his eleventh try, his father dies of shock. Bajrangi, looking for a job, goes to the house of his father's friend and wrestling coach, Dayanand (Sharat Saxena), in Delhi. Having spent time together with his daughter Rasika (Kareena Kapoor Khan), they fall in love with each other and Dayanand promises of getting them married on the condition that Bajrangi get a job and buy a house. In the present, Bajrangi brings Munni to meet Dayanand, another devout Brahmin, who lets Munni stay, believing that with her fair complexion, Munni must be a Brahmin as well. Munni gets accustomed to being part of the household. It is eventually revealed that Munni is a Pakistani Muslim. An enraged Dayanand orders Bajrangi to make arrangements to have her sent to Pakistan through the Pakistan Embassy, where Bajrangi's pleading fails. He is betrayed by a local travel agent who claims to be able to take Munni to Pakistan without a passport but actually takes her to a brothel, causing him to take Munni to her parents in Pakistan, in person and without a passport and visa...................................
