Story
The film is an unofficial sequel to the 1975 film Wehshi Jatt. Wehshi Jatt itself was inspired by an Urdu play "Gandasa" written by Ahmed Nadeem Qasmi which depicts a bloody feud in Gujranwala against the backdrop of rural Punjab.
Following the settlement of Maula's family feud in Wehshi Jatt, Maula has renounced violence and is in charge of administering the peace of his village and it's surrounding villages. The film begins with Makha chasing a girl through villages. She asks for help but as soon as people hear that she is being pursued by Makha, the brother of Noori Natt they ask her to leave and not share her misfortune with them.
She arrives in Maula's village and is sheltered by Maula's sister- in-law. Maula Jatt arrives and decrees that if Makha wants to avoid the fate of being killed by his 'Gandasa' (Traditional Punjabi machete style weapon) he should marry the very girl he has dishonoured and also marry his sister off to the girls brother. The girl has no family so Maula orders Makha to marry his sister to his friend Moodha.
When Makha returns home to plot his revenge, his sister Daro incensed upon hearing what he has agreed to kills him. The Natt clan now try to avenge the humiliation that Maula Jutt has caused them while Maula Jutt tries to ensure that his decision is enforced.

Famous quotes containing the word story:
“The unread story is not a story; it is little black marks on wood pulp. The reader, reading it, makes it live: a live thing, a story.”
—Ursula K. Le Guin (b. 1929)
“The history of men’s opposition to women’s emancipation is more interesting perhaps than the story of that emancipation itself.”
—Virginia Woolf (1882–1941)
“... if there’s a house, then there is a wall ... between them and the outside world. The ideal is to stay inside and to never have to go out, and the whole idea of staying home is really important. I think men do get out, but it is not glamorized the way it is here in America, where the big story is to ride out and go someplace and to travel.”
—Gish Jen (b. 1956)
