Plot
The story revolves around a bachelor Mirza sahib(played byAamir Khan), who has not seen or felt a woman’s presence in his life since his mother passed away. He lives his predictable life running a general provisions store and going to brothels-until the arrival of "Lajjo"(Kareena Kapoor). Lajjo is a young orphan who has survived by selling her body to men who have abused her. She is taken to Mirza’s house by a friend who says he should have a house maid. Lajjo falls in love with the house, and the fact there is no other woman there, refuses to leave even as Mirza sahib is calculating the unnecessary expense, and struggling with the uncomfortable thought of having a woman in his house. Lajjo prevails and transforms the house. Mirza first falls for her cooking and then for her charms. He stops going to brothels, and each day is now full of excitement and anticipation. Even sales increase at the store when Lajo walks in with his lunch box in her sexy lehnga(long skirt). Then possessiveness begins to rear its ugly head as Mirza starts getting jealous of all the male attention Lajjo evokes and decides to marry her much against her protests. Lajjo is true to Mirza and doesn’t think she needs to be married to be his. Marriage predictably changes things. The sexy Lajjo is now made to wear traditional clothes -the freedom that she so enjoys is curbed along with the attire. The traits that Mirza found sexy in her, are now considered obscene and to discover that brazen sensuality Mirza used to find at home he has now begun frequenting the brothels again. Lajjo finally loses her patience and looks elsewhere for love-in the arms of a young man(rumours indicate Madhavan orAbhishek Bachchan to play this part) who often pretended to fly kites over her courtyard just to ogle at her. The duo is caught red handed by Mirza who beats her up and then divorces her.. a few days later she walks back into the house as his maid and things go back to where they were before the ties of matrimony tore them asunder!
