Plot
Laachi (Neeru Bajwa) marries Mehnga (Amberdeep Singh). She loves to sing and dance. She tells Mehnga she wanted to fall in love and marry, but instead married as per her family's wishes. She asks him to pretend they are strangers so she can fulfill her fantasy now. Mehnga agrees even though he is clueless as to how to woo a girl. They play this game and happily live their life.
Laachi gets a chance to sing a song and make some money. Due to financial difficulties, she ends up singing and dancing with family's approval. Meanwhile, a famous singer, Ajitpal Singh, sees Laachi and signs her up with him. His management company has Laachi and Mehnga sign a document affirming they are single so the Laachi-Ajitpal duo can become more famous. Laachi is star-struck by Ajitpal and agrees with whatever he suggests. Ajitpal is infatuated with Laachi and tries to separate the husband and wife. Mehnga leaves Laachi and returns to his village due to some misunderstandings. Laachi follows him and resolves the misunderstandings.
