Plot
Mukhtiar Chadha (Diljit Dosanjh) is a Delhi-based jack of all trades, without a stable source of income. He lives with his widowed mother (Kiran Juneja), and does a variety of professions including being a property dealer, and sometimes being a con-artist. He is also an avid investor in stocks. Mukhtiar also falls in love with his neighbor (Oshin Brar), though the girl's father does not approve of him.
Trouble arises for Mukhtiar, when he brokers a land deal, but the buyers (Yashpal Sharma and Khayali Ram) illegally grab his client's land by only making a part payment to his client. Mukhtiar fights those goons and manages to defeat them.
Planning and Shooting
Director Gifty (Chetan Parwana) and Diljit Dosanjh decided about movie while working on music track called Kharku.[8] Yashpal Sharma claimed he was the funniest villain ever to be seen in Punjabi cinema and termed the film as hardcore comedy.[9] Oshin Brar was also part of music video Kharku when she was offered this film.[10] She had to walk barefoot on desert sand while shooting the movie song Main Deewani at Jaisalmer thus burning her feet[11] and in conditions of 55 degree Celsius temperatures she was dehydrated.[12]
During the filming of the song 'Main Deewani,' the cast and crew faced significant challenges due to the extreme heat in Jaisalmer. Despite the harsh conditions, including temperatures reaching 55 degrees Celsius, the team managed to complete the shoot, showcasing their dedication and resilience.

During Promotions Diljit revealed his character Mukhtiar Singh Chadha is seen with a typical Delhi Sikh trader accent, for which he took diction classes in Old Delhi.[13] Oshin Brar also visited an education institute in Hisar for the promotions.[14] For promotions of Dilwale and Mukhtiar Chadha together on an entertainment channel, Diljit also interviewed Shah Rukh Khan where SRK pulled off a mimicry of Chadhaji's character successfully to Diljit in Chaddaji's language saying famous dialogue assisted by Kriti Sanon alongside Dilwale team, Varun Dhawan and Rohit Shetty[15] for Dubsmash video.[16]
