Synopsis:
When Roop (Jimmy Shergill) sees Disha (Neeru Bajwa) itʼs love at first sight. Both are from the same city, both are young, both are educated and both are perfect for each other, having been born and raised as Punjabiʼs. A match made in heaven.... or so thinks Roop.
The grass is always greener on the other side and Dishaʼs father Dilip Singh (Om Puri), a foreign return Punjabi, believes that only a NRI is a suitable match for his princess. The NRIʼs are more educated, classy, cultured and all round worldlier, he believes. For him, the local boys just donʼt make the cut.
It is now that Roop must not only hide his true identity from the love of his life Disha but also her father to win over his bride, with a little help from his best friend DJ (Gurpreet Ghuggi).
On a mission to stand up for the local Punjabi boys, Roop decides that he must fake it to make it. He thus enters Dishaʼs life as a NRI and wins her over, but how far can he pull off this farce before his plan falls apart?
Roop, Disha and the two families take a rollercoaster ride of fun, frolics, traditional values, emotions, love and romance in a bid to find a perfect end to a perfect love story.
Aa Gaye Munde U.K. De hits cinemas this weekend, 8 August 2014.
