Halaf tells Ranjit his business partner has been brutally murdered - he's hung on a crane outside the palace window - but Ranjit can be safe and gives him a sticker for free passage through the city, with the understanding that Ranjit will help Iraq. Ranjit is spared when Iraqi Major Halaf (Inaamulhaq) recognises him from an earlier trip to Iraq. He goes to the palace with Nair but they are stopped on the streets, full of soldiers looting and shooting people, and Nair gets shot. Ranjit wants to get his family out to London and is busy making calls to the Sheikhs - but discovers the entire Kuwaiti overnment has run away.
Suddenly, an explosion rips through a labour camp and Iraq, using tanks, rockets and troops, invades Kuwait. Ranjit and Amrita leave their little daughter Simu at home and go partying where Ranjit impresses all with his song and dance. Ranjit's happy with his comfortable life in Kuwait although his wife Amrita (Nimrat) scolds him for drinking too much.
Ranjit loves making money and dislikes India, as he tells his driver Nair, who wants to take his four-year-old daughter to see their homeland. It's 1 August, 1990, and rich Indian-origin businessman Ranjit Katyal (Akshay) is firming up a deal with Kuwait's ruling Sheikhs.
