Plot

The story begins as four friends Jiggy, Rotlu, Sandhya and Shaleen travel with a guest to an airport, when they offer to tell Jiggy's date—air hostess Mala Mishra—the love story of two college best friends: a polite and peaceful Rajput named Jai "Ratz" Singh Rathore, and an impulsive girl named Aditi "Meow" Mahant.

Aditi dreams of an overly virile husband, while Jai wants a sweet, romantic girl. Since they do not believe that they are in love, they search for a perfect life partner for each other after finishing college. Jai falls in love with Meghna Pariyar after spotting her in a club where two men were misbehaving with her. He rescues her by tricking the duo, thus winning Meghna's heart. When Meghna and Jai get close to each other, Rotlu, Jiggy, Sandhya, and Shaleen are happy for Jai, but nobody notices that Aditi is missing Jai's company. Meghna informs Jai that her parents squabble but cannot live without each other. Jai visits Meghna's parents and sees that her alcoholic father Mahesh has much friction with his ex-wife Sheela. Due to the meeting, he misses Aditi's surprise birthday party.

Feeling deserted, Aditi gets engaged to her father's friend's son Sushant Modi. She sees in him the macho man she always wanted. At Jiggy's party, she introduces Sushant to everyone. Both Jai and Aditi are upset with their relationship. During a romantic dance, Sushant finds that Aditi is crying and kisses her, which upsets Jai.

After Meghna tried to cheer him up, Jai chides her for being ignorant of her parents' issues. She breaks down and tells him about her parents' divorce due to Mahesh's extramarital affair. The next day, Jai breaks up with Meghna. After realising she loves Jai, Sushant slaps her on her face. She decides to break the engagement and go to New York to study alone. When she meets Jai, he spots the bruise on Aditi's face. Jai arrives at Sushant's and beats him up.

Later, inspector P.K. Waghmare arrests Jai and puts him behind bars. Later that night, while still in prison, he meets the two brothers who were found harassing Meghna at the club and is surprised to see them celebrating their imprisonment. They begin talking, and Jai inadvertently reveals his credentials as a Ranjhor native, which causes the other two to decipher his identity. He mentions that he is the son of late Amar Singh Rathore, and the brothers confirm that his mother's name is Savitri. They clutch him to the ground in joy, and he discovers in an epiphany when they address him as "Mowgli", that the brothets are his long-lost cousins, Kuber "Baloo" Singh Rathore and Vinay "Bagheere" Singh Rathore, from whom he had been separated in childhood. Jai realises that Amar was never the non-violent type Savitri had painted him as and that she was lying to him all along.

Meanwhile, Aditi makes her way to the airport to depart for New York. Baloo and Bagheere, who are sons of Amar's cousin, now an MLA, use their influence to bail Jai out, after which Jai rides to the airport on a borrowed horse to stop Aditi from leaving. Savitri spots him and decides to return home, dejected that Amar's dream came true. Jai finds Aditi at the airport lounge and sings her the titular song which he had confessed earlier as the one he would sing for the love of his life. Aditi, delighted, hugs him and cancels her travel plans.

Back in the present, the four friends welcome Jai and Aditi at the airport. Mala gets delighted to see them and introduces herself as Jiggy's girlfriend, before they leave the airport together.

Reception

=Critical response=

Jaane Tu... Ya Jaane Na received widespread critical acclaim upon release. Raja Sen of Rediff.com gave it a 4 out of 5, praising it for "a rock-solid ensemble cast that is mouthwateringly perfect". Prasanna Zore of Rediff gave the film 3.5 out of 5, writing "Jaane Tu... Ya Jaane Na, written and directed by Abbas Tyrewala (who scripted the fun Munna Bhai series, Main Hoon Na and Maqbool among others) is a fun-filled, engaging entertainment.
