What happens

Bodyguard is a 2011 Indian Hindi-language romantic action comedy film directed by Siddique. A remake of the 2010 Malayalam film of the same name—also directed by Siddique himself, the film stars Salman Khan and Kareena Kapoor, alongside Raj Babbar, Mahesh Manjrekar, Aditya Pancholi and Hazel Keech in supporting roles. Bodyguard broke many records upon its release. Within the first day of its release, it went on to become the highest opening day grosser for a Hindi film. The film set another box office record, netting ₹103 crore (US$22.07 million) in its first week, thus becoming the highest opening week grossing Hindi film until then. The film became a commercial success with a worldwide gross of ₹252 crore (US$53.99 million). (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
