Dhaai Akshar Prem Ke (2000)

Karan Khanna is an orphan and a captain in the Rajputana Armed Forces. He's madly in love with beautiful model Nisha, with whom he plans to tie the knot during his next leave. On the way to Nisha and their life together he bumps into Sahiba Grewal (Aishwarya Rai) who is an eye-witness to a murder and a girl on the run. Paranoid and panic-stricken, she finds an unexpected savior in Karan who rescues her from a group of criminals and stops her from taking her life. Slowly, Sahiba confides in Karan about her painful past and not-so-pretty future. Sahiba is the daughter of the stern and stony-faced patriach, industrialist Yagvendra Grewal who wants to see her settle down with the very suitable son of his friend, Rai Bahadur. Unwilling to get tied down too soon with a stranger, Sahiba lies to her family telling them she got married while studying in the city and is now terrified of returning to Palanpur without a husband. Karan chivalrously offers to make the trip home with her and tell her father that she was forced to lie to him to avoid an early marriage. Along the way, Sahiba falls in love with Karan but he is still starry-eyed about his model. They arrive in Palanpur and Karan soon endears himself to Sahiba's extended family that includes her father, his three younger brothers, their wives and Biji, Sahiba's doting grandmother. Only Yagvendra refuses to accept his son-in-law, who he is convinced is after Sahiba's crores. Karan, who's never had a family of his own, is easily drawn into the warmth surrounding him and life is fine till one of Sahiba's aunts mistakenly assumes that Sahiba's expecting and spreads the word around.

Yogvendra Grewal lives with his mom, Biji, in a joint family consisting of his daughter, Sahiba; his brothers Sharan, Pritam, and Ronak; Sharan's wife, Sweety; Pritam's wife, Monica; and their respective children. Sahiba is of marriageable age and the family, especially Biji, would like her to get married. But Sahiba is just not ready to get married and runs away from home. Lost and alone, she witnesses a murder being committed and flees straight into the arms of an army captain Karan Khanna, who escorts her back home. Everyone thinks that Karan is here to get married to Sahiba, and he is welcomed and treated as one of the family. Only Sahiba knows that Karan has a sweetheart in Nisha, who is waiting for his return to get married to him. The family are disappointed when they find out that Karan is meant for someone else, and quickly arrange for Sahiba's marriage with Vicky Singhal, the only son of Rai Bahadur Tejeshwar.
