Plot
Balwanth Singh is a bodyguard of Sartaj Rana (Raj Babbar) with high competences. During one night, Balwant, along with his pregnant wife, get into a car accident. While the accident causes Balwant to die right away, his wife is rescued by Sartaj, and she later gives birth to a child named Lovely. Lovely Singh (Salman Khan), now grown up, is the bodyguard of Sartaj's daughter Divya (Kareena Kapoor). He is very devoted to his duties but irritates her all the time by following her everywhere. Consequently, Divya and her friend Maya (Hazel Keech) call Lovely and start a prank love affair, hoping to keep him away from them.
Lovely starts loving the mystery person but doesn't realise that it is Divya who was behind all of this. Divya tells Lovely that her name is Chhaya. Meanwhile, Sartaj begins to suspect that Lovely and Divya are together and sends his men to kill Lovely in case his lover turns out to be Divya. Sensing this, Divya sends her friend Maya to tell Lovely her true identity. Maya, seeing Lovely, falls in love, and admits that she is the lover. Divya calls her twice, but Maya throws the cellphone out, trying to erase Divya out of their love life completely. Following their marriage, Maya dies after giving birth to a child and reveals to her son in her diary about her fraud and asks him to unite Lovely and Divya.
Several years later, Sartaj invites Lovely and his son to his house, and apologises for his behaviour. Lovely is shocked to know that Divya never married. His son grows closer to Divya and on their last day of visit, while leaving, he asks Divya to accompany him as his mother. Lovely asks his son to apologise but he refuses. Sartaj tells Lovely that he too feels the same and he should take Divya with him. At the railway station, Lovely and his son are accompanied by Divya. The son throws Maya's diary into the dustbin but Lovely sees it and retrieves it. He reads it and comes to know that Divya was his actual lover. In the last scene, Divya is called by Lovely and he addresses her as Chhaya. Divya realises that Lovely has come to know of the truth and they hug each other, happily watched by Lovely's son.

Production
The film's production company, Reel Life Production Pvt. Ltd, was bought by Reliance Entertainment for ₹ 64 crore. This earned Reliance the co-producer status and an equal share in the IPR for perpetuity.
Filming and casting
Neerupa Menon, a mutual friend of director Siddique and Alvira Khan, introduced him to Alvira and Atul Agnihotri, the to-be co-producers of the film, suggesting that he should venture into Bollywood. Siddique sent his original Malayalam film to Alvira and Atul as a result of the suggestion and they convinced Salman Khan to watch the film. After watching the film, Khan was very impressed with it and agreed to do the Hindi remake.
Shooting for the film began on January 16, 2011 at the Symbiosis International University campus situated in Lavale, Pune. The classrooms and academic block of Symbiosis Institute of Business Management were used in the Lavale campus. The shooting later continued in the town of Patiala (Punjab). Two songs from the film were scheduled to be shot in Europe but were later shifted to Film City in Mumbai to cut costs as the film had already exceeded its initial budget.
Release
Bodyguard opened across 2,250 screens in 70 Indian cities and with 482 prints across the overseas territory, released in Dolby Surround 7.1. Reliance Entertainment set aside a marketing and print budget of around ₹ 22 crore for Bodyguard, one of the highest ever in Bollywood. The satellite rights of the film were sold to STAR network for ₹ 27 crore for seven years.
Critical response
Upon release, the film received mixed to positive from critics. Taran Adarsh of Bollywood Hungama gave a score of 4.5/5 and said "BODYGUARD works for varied reasons -- it has a simple, but captivating story with a dramatic twist in the tale, the chemistry between the lead actors is perfect and the music is well juxtaposed in the narrative. But its biggest USP is, without doubt, Salman Khan. He carries the film on his broad and brawny shoulders and that alone is the imperative reason for watching this film." Komal Nahta of Koimoi, while praising the performance of Salman Khan, gave it a rating of 4/5 and wrote, "Bodyguard will prove to be a hit because of Salman Khan's performance." Zee News gave the film 4 stars and praised the directorial skills of Siddique: "Kudos to filmmaker Siddique to have presented Salman Khan in a way never seen before! And the action sequences are breathtaking." Oneindia.in awarded the movie 4 stars and stated, "Overall, Bodyguard is a good masala entertainer and it can be a perfect time-passer for this Eid and Ganesh festive seasons. Salman's fans should not miss to watch this movie." Samay Live gave it 4 stars and wrote; "There are stunning events of twist in the film which will keep you stay with your seats till the end. Shivesh Kumar of IndiaWeekly awarded the movie 4 out of 5 stars. Kaveree Bamzai of India Today awarded the movie 3 stars and stated: "Anyone who has watched Khan's recent movies will recognise the signs -- a killer dialogue which will be remembered till the next blockbuster is manufactured, a signature ring tone, and a pre-fight ritual-in this case, it is taking off his watch. In his review for The Times of India, Gaurav Malani wrote: "Salman Khan is cool and convincing in the title role. His subdued act and charming innocence wins your heart. Kareena Kapoor is likeable ... Bodyguard doesn't catch you off guard. But it's a decent entertainer nonetheless." Phelim O'Neill of The Guardian praised the technical aspects of the film and awarded three of five stars: "Bollywood movies have improved dramatically in technical terms over the last few years. Here the fight and stunt sequences are afforded as much care and attention as the song and dance scenes; it's all top-notch stuff." Daily Bhaskar awarded the movie three out of five stars and wrote: "Salman, Kareena and Siddique serve a good Eid biryani for the audience by blending romance, action and comedy." Shubha Shetty-Saha of MiD DAY gave it two and a half stars saying, "The film is obviously not expected to be intellectually stimulating. But to give it due credit, it provides loads of entertainment, the kind you may have come to expect of a Salman Khan film." Sukanya Verma of Rediff gave it 2.5 of 5 stars and stated: "A standard entertainer with generic ingredients like action, emotion, romance, comedy, song and dance, the Hindi remake of Malayalam super-hit Bodyguard is like a mediocre Pizza Margherita that's gone stingy on the mozzarella, bland on the sauce with nothing except a half-crunchy base and uneven scattering of basil leaves."
The film also received a few negative reviews. Andy Webster of the New York Times said "If only the film’s archly slick director, Siddique, had adopted the same winking attitude toward the romantic arc. A twist near the end sends this contrived movie into a maudlin stratosphere from which it doesn’t recover. But at least, in Ms. Keech’s supporting presence, understated yet palpable, we sense a performer of emerging, and remarkable, star power." Nikhat Kazmi of The Times of India gave 2.5 out of 5 stars and wrote, "The film, a remake of a South Indian hit, may end up as another blockbuster, like most Salman films have been doing in the recent past. Yet, sadly, this one's mostly bluster." Sonia Chopra from Sify gave the film 2.5 stars and said "Bodyguard is endurable (and I say this without any condescension) for those who can forgive the haphazard story and be happy enjoying the songs and watching Salman and Kareena onscreen." Saibal Chatterjee from NDTV gave the film 2/5 stars and concluded that "If you value the mop on your scalp and the grey cells in your head and want guard yourself against this potentially mind-numbing body blow, give it a miss. Better be safe than sorry!" Aniruddha Guha of Daily News and Analysis gave it 2 stars and wrote: "Salman is charming as ever, and the fact that he’s playing a slightly different character would have actually worked to the film’s advantage if it was backed by a better script." Rajeev Masand of CNN-IBN gave it 2 out of 5 stars and called it a lazy remake. Mayank Shekhar of Hindustan Times panned the film giving it one and a half stars. He argued that the film "for more parts, is a sappy romantic pap". Shubra Gupta from The Indian Express also gave it one and a half stars and said "'Bodyguard' can also safely be called In which Salman Continues to Give Us Those Ones."

Reception
Upon release, the album received mixed reviews from critics. Joginder Tuteja from Bollywood Hungama gave it 4 out of 5 stars, concluding: "The music of Bodyguard has in it to be hugely popular amongst audience as it has everything for everybody. For the lovers of conventional music there is 'Desi Beats' while for Salman's fans there is the title track 'Bodyguard'. And then for those who are hunting for melody which boasts of a much longer shelf life, there is 'Teri Meri' and 'I Love You' (by Pritam) which are all set to rule the charts in days to come." Devesh Sharma of Filmfare awarded it 3 out of 5 stars and wrote: "Himesh, despite being a little rusty, is back in action and let’s hope he continues what he is best at and keeps his acting ambitions under check." On the other hand, Rediff gave it 2 stars and wrote: "Box office possibilities aside, the soundtrack is not write-off material but nothing to write home too with only awful, average and alright on its menu." Similarly, Ruchika Kher of the Indo-Asian News Service also gave the album 2 stars and noted: "On the whole, the album is quite average. Though none of the songs is very bad, there isn't any that really stands out and grabs attention."
