Editing Kaho Naa... Pyaar Hai (section)

== Plot ==
Rohit, an aspiring singer working at a car showroom, struggles to support himself and his younger brother Amit after losing their parents. They live with an elderly Christian couple, Lily and Anthony. Through his job, Rohit meets Sonia, the daughter of wealthy businessman Saxena—who is connected to his boss, Shakti Malik—and the two quickly develop feelings for each other.

On a cruise arranged by Atul, Shakti’s son and Sonia’s best friend, tensions flare when Sonia becomes jealous of the attention Rohit receives from other women. To provoke him, she flirts with Atul, sparking a drunken argument that ends with both falling into a lifeboat. The vessel drifts to a deserted island, where repeated quarrels expose their clashing personalities. During one such argument, Sonia slips on a rock and falls into the ocean, deceiving Rohit into believing she cannot swim. Despite his own inability, Rohit risks his life to rescue her, and begins to drown himself, in which Sonia, in turn, saves him and in that moment, their deep love is realized as they spend several days together on the island.

They are eventually rescued by Saxena, who disapproves of their relationship due to Rohit’s modest background. Rohit loses his job, but he vows to succeed so he can be worthy of marrying Sonia. With support from Atul and other friends, he records a song to launch his musical career. However, on the night of his first concert, while picking up Amit from school, Rohit inadvertently witnesses the murder of a police commissioner by Malik and two corrupt officers, Satish Shinde and Dilip Kadam, who are targeted for exposing their illegal drug dealings. Rohit gets brutally attacked by them for this horrifying discovery but he manages to escape. Fearing exposure, Malik contacts Saxena—revealed to be the real mastermind behind a drug cartel—and orders Rohit’s death. During a frantic chase, Rohit’s bike malfunctions, and he is pushed off a bridge into the sea. Unable to swim, he dies by drowning, and his corpse is never recovered.

Devastated by Rohit’s death, Sonia falls into deep depression, prompting Saxena to send her to live with his brother in New Zealand. There, she meets Raj Chopra, her cousin Nita’s best friend, who strikingly resembles Rohit and is also a talented singer. Initially, Sonia clings to the hope that Rohit might still be alive, but she soon realizes that Raj is a completely different man who was born and brought up in New Zealand and never visited India. Though Raj falls in love with her, Sonia, still grieving, resists his advances—a situation that creates further tension with her family. After a brief confrontation by Nita, Sonia finally shows Rohit’s photos to Raj shocking him to the core about the striking resemblance.

When Sonia returns to India, Raj accompanies her despite her reluctance and accepts her rejection. At the airport, Shinde mistakenly shoots Raj, confusing him for Rohit. Fleeing together, Raj realizes that Rohit’s death was likely a murder rather than an accident due the attack on former despite no connections to India prior to this visit. Together with Sonia and Rohit’s best friend Tony, they uncover disturbing clues. Amit—who had become mute following the tragedy—finally speaks, revealing that he witnessed Rohit being attacked and that Malik, known to him as “Sirjee,” ordered the hit.

Determined to expose the truth, Raj, Sonia, Atul, and Tony stage a revival of Rohit’s concert, announcing his return from the dead to flush out the killers. The ruse creates panic among the culprits, and during the performance, Sonia confides in Saxena, revealing the secret behind Rohit’s death and the identities of those involved. As the disguised murderers attempt to silence Raj when he recounts Amit’s testimony, he narrowly survives a shooting—thanks to his body armor—but the danger escalates when Sonia is kidnapped.

Following the kidnappers’ demands, Raj infiltrates their hideout, rescues Sonia, and takes down Shinde and Kadam, avenging Rohit’s death. Malik appears and admits that Rohit was killed for witnessing the commissioner’s murder. He is just about to reveal that Saxena was the true cause of the murder, when Saxena himself murders Malik. When Anthony, Lily, Tony, and Amit arrive, Amit recognizes the dead Malik as the person who called "Sirjee." Investigating further, Raj uncovers evidence on Malik’s cellphone that confirms Saxena’s role as the cartel leader behind the crimes. As Saxena is arrested, he confesses his involvement in the Commissioner and Rohit’s murder.

In the aftermath, with justice partially served and the truth finally revealed, Raj takes Amit back to New Zealand. Sonia, having found solace and new love in Raj, confesses her feelings for him. Their engagement is celebrated by all, marking a bittersweet conclusion to their turbulent journey.
