The film starred Aamir Khan as Ranchoddas Shamaldas Chanchad aka Rancho, alongside R Madhavan, Sharman Joshi, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Boman Irani, Rahul Kumar, Mona Singh and many others in pivotal roles. The story centres around the friendship of three students at an Indian engineering college, each from different backgrounds and with distinct passions in life.
