Jaspal Singh ([[Tarsem Jassar]]), an honest person is appointed as a Kanungo (Revenue Inspector under whom five Patwaris or agricultural land clerks work). Therefore, Kashmiro ([[Gurpreet Kaur Bhangu]]) a well wisher and senior lady from his village wants him to marry her niece Harman ([[Nimrat Khaira]]) who is a teacher in a government school and wants to marry someone in a government job. | Jaspal Singh ([[Tarsem Jassar]]), an honest person, is appointed as a Kanungo (a Revenue Inspector, under whom five Patwaris or agricultural land clerks work). Therefore, Kashmiro ([[Gurpreet Kaur Bhangu]]), a well wisher and senior lady from his village, wants him to marry her niece, Harman ([[Nimrat Khaira]]), who is a teacher in a government school and wants to marry someone in a government job. | ||
Bharpur Singh ([[Karamjit Anmol]]) who is a corrupt Patwari (agricultural land clerk) from Harman's village | Bharpur Singh ([[Karamjit Anmol]]), who is a corrupt Patwari (agricultural land clerk) from Harman's village, also has his eye on Harman. When he approaches Harman's drunken and illiterate father regarding his land, he lies and informs him that a Patwari post is higher and richer than that of Kanungo, and therefore the father should have Harman marry Bharpur. So when Jaspal and his family approach Harman's family for her hand, Harman's father refuses them, even though everyone, including Harman, likes Jaspal. As Jaspal is leaving, Harman advises him to work hard and get a post of Patwari so that her father will accept him, to which Jaspal replies that hard work leads to promotion and not demotion, so how can he become a junior official when he is a senior official? | ||
As Jaspal is leaving in his car, another Jaspal Singh ([[Ravinder Mand]]), who has recently got the post of Patwari after his father's death, asks him for lift, as his scooter has broken down. On their way, Patwari Jaspal tells Kanungo Jaspal that he doesn't like this government job and prefers lying idle and getting drunk, provided he gets some easy money. Looking at this great opportunity, Kanungo Jaspal gives money to Patwari Jaspal and tells him to go away somewhere and that he will take his place as the new Patwari, as their names are the same and no one knows them in that village. | |||
Kanungo Jaspal makes a fake ID card and, with the document from Patwari, Jaspal reports to Harman's village as the new Patwari, after getting Patwari Bharpur Singh transferred through his best friend's uncle, who is a politician. The film unfolds from there. | |||
