Mohan (Shah Rukh Khan) werkt als vooraanstaand ingenieur bij de NASA aan een satellietsysteem dat wereldwijd de regenval controleert: Global Precipitation Measurement. Omdat de lancering van de nieuwe satelliet nog enige tijd op zich laat wachten, keert hij terug naar India op zoek naar Kaveri (Kishori Balal), de vrouw die hem vroeger heeft grootgebracht en die hij als zijn tweede moeder beschouwt. Hij vindt haar in een afgelegen dorpje, waar de tijd stilgestaan lijkt te hebben. Bij Kaveri komt hij ook een oude jeugdvriendin Gita (Gayatri Roshi) tegen. Gita is onderwijzeres. Zij probeert meer aandacht te vragen voor onderwijs, maar de dorpsoudsten zijn wars van vernieuwing en hechten vooral aan aloude tradities en de eigen cultuur.
