Plot
[edit]Yadwinder aka Nikka is from a wealthy landlord family in rural Punjab and is a student at a college in Patiala. While there, he falls for Manraj but she refuses to engage romantically with him saying that she would only marry a guy that her family chooses for her. Nikka sends his friend Bhola as mediator to convince his and Manraj's family. As, Nikka is still studying so his grandmother refuses to entertain the notion of his marriage saying that he is young and not ready to marry. To convince her, Nikka quits college in the hope that the grandmother changes her mind but when she doesn't relent, he fools her into believing that he's having an affair with Shanti whom his grandmother disapproves of as a suitable match. Then, he sends Bhola again to convince her to consider Manraj who is from a far wealthier and reputed family. This time, the grandmother agrees and sends marriage proposal to Manraj's family. However, they fix his marriage with Manraj's older sister Seerat as they thought that the marriage proposal was for her. Nikka and Seerat are now engaged but neither of them likes each other and they want to break off the engagement but can't. Meanwhile, Nikka and Manraj fall in love when he convinces her that the marriage proposal was meant for her. Since they have no other option left, Nikka and Manraj elope which causes a comedy of errors at their houses. However, the couple has a last minute change of heart and return home which convinces their families to agree to their marriage instead.
