The story’s central characters are Rajjo (Kangana Ranaut), a Muslim girl and Chandu (Paras Arora), a young Brahmin boy. When Chandu helps his team win a cricket match, the team decides to celebrate the victory by visiting the Kothas of Nagpada. This is where Chandu meets Rajjo who mesmerizes him with her powerful Mujra dance. For Chandu, it is love at first sight.
Chandu belongs to a family of music lovers; he is a very good harmonium player, his mother is a Bhajan singer. Rajjo is trained under Kothewali Amma; she is naughty, sweet and quite attractive. Music is the common thread between them, as is the strong attraction that draws Rajjo and Chandu together and seals their love.
Simultaneously the Nagpada area goes under the clutches of re-development and all the dancers and singers are under the shadow of this potential danger. Amidst these circumstances, Rajjo and Chandu have to deal with Begum (Mahesh Manjrekar) who runs the Kotha and Hande Bhau (Prakash Raj), a corporator with powerful political connections who has his eye set on Rajjo. With everything working against them, will Rajjo and Chandu’s love be able to triumph against all odds?
'Rajjo', which also stars Prakash Raj, Mahesh Manjrekar and Jaya Prada, marks the directorial debut of Vishwas Patil, a well known writer and winner of the prestigious Sahitya Akademi National Award. The music has been composed by Uttam Singh of 'Gadar' and 'Dil To Pagal Hai' fame.
Lead actress Kangana Ranaut is very confident about 'Rajjo' and she is happy that the film is releasing during the festive season.
"'Rajjo' is really close to my heart and I am glad it is being released this festive season. As for competition with other films, there would be one every week in any case. I am sure my producers are taking a good call and it comes from the trust and confidence they have in the product," she said.
