In 1971 Salford, fish-and-chip shop owner George Khan expects his family to follow his strict Pakistani Muslim ways. But his children, having been born to an English mother and brought up in Britain, increasingly see themselves as British and start to reject their fathers rules on dress, food, religion, and living in general.
Zaheed Khan was born in Pakistan and married his first wife there, but he sought better prospects and emigrated to Britain, where he changed his name to George and fell in love with Ella, a Caucasian; he married her and they eventually became the parents of six sons and one daughter. He wanted all of children to follow Islamic tradition, and would parcel them in the "Masjid van" every Friday for prayers and religious incantations. Arguments with Ella are one-sided and always end when he threatens to bring "Mrs. Khan" from Pakistan. When his eldest son Nazir comes to know that his dad is arranging his marriage, he runs away from home, and his father disowns him. The children have lots of friends in the community and some have shown interest in romances, but they have no idea that their father is planning to marry off two of his sons to two Pakistani sisters. Ella prepares for a visit from their prospective in-laws, and and her sons are introduced to their brides-to-be. After recovering from the initial shock of seeing the women face-to-face, the family settles down, leaving Khan to negotiate the details. Noticing how very small the Khans apartment is, the brides mother proposes that the grooms-to-be should settle in their house after marriage. Watch how chaos takes over, and the manner in which the overbearing Khan attempts to bring his family in line, in the midst of Enoch Powells announcement that his political party will expel all immigrants and send them back to their respective motherlands.
