Plot
This is story of a family where Keval, a village lad, goes to town and never returns. The story is told through the memories of his mother, daughter and the villagers. At the end, Keval's (Shahrukh Khan) friend comes to his home and his family accepts him as the second Keval. This is considered as a reincarnation of Keval; hence, the name "Doosra Keval" (Hindi) or "The Second Keval".
