Plot
A planeload of passengers are stranded in distant Ganganagar in rural India as their plane cannot take off due to technical problems. The Airport Manager is S.R. Khan, intoxicated and belligerent at most times, gets to meet his former sweetheart, Gulab Khan, in the company of her husband, his wise-cracking Sikh Assistant, Ram Saran Dubey, whose mother is a Sardarni, while his dad is from Bihar. An estranged father, Sunil Wadhwa, and his wife try to pacify their daughter into accepting their imminent separation, while Italian Siddharth has only a few hours to make up his mind who he wants to marry, Anita Ahuja or Manju Narang, who both happen to be cousins and both aggressively want to be his wife. The Pilot Captain Vikram Sinha is shattered when he gets the news that his affair with air-hostess Rachna has resulted in a much avoidable pregnancy. Internet lovers Farha and Rahul finally meet - only to come to face with reality as Farha's father disapproves of her affair with Rahul and does not want her to come home. Farha also goes missing, then. All this happens amid a mysterious male asleep on a bench in the airport lounge, and he is not to be disturbed under any circumstances. The mysterious male is Farha's idol Shah Rukh Khan, who persuades her to return home with Rahul and ensures their parents approve it.
