The protagonist Rizwan (Shah Rukh) moves to San Francisco and meets a vivacious single mother named Mandira (Kajol). They form a special bond and fall in love against all odds, but fate and tragedy conspire to tear them apart.

Just when it appears as though all hope is lost, Rizwan embarks on a remarkable journey across America to win back the love of his life.

My Name Is Khan is available on standard DVD for the suggested retail price of $27.98 U.S. / $43.48 Canada.
