It was released theatrically on 29 June 2012 and became a major commercial success at the box office, becoming the highest-grossing Punjabi film.

Jatt & Juliet 2 also broke records at the box office, and again ended up becoming the highest-grossing Punjabi film.

They both first meet at the passport office where Fateh asks Pooja to fill his form feigning his hand to be injured, not knowing English.

The owner of the house throws both of them out and they work at two different "Apna Chulha" restaurants that are run by a wife and husband, who are now separated.

Fateh and Pooja soon discover that the Apna Chulha is going to be repossessed by the bank because of six unpaid property payments for the loan.

Fateh and Pooja work out the process of reconciling the husband and wife so that the loan could be paid off.

It broke all box office records and became the highest grossing Punjabi film at the time.
