Kumail Nanjiani stars as Kumail, who is born into a very traditional Pakistani family. After reaching adulthood, he chooses to become a stand-up comedian. During a stand-up performance, Kumail encounters a girl named Emily (played by Zoe Kazan), and what begins as a one-night stand unexpectedly extends into a day of connection, leading them to discover they are each other's missing half, and they become a couple. However, Kumail's family pressures him to adhere to the traditional Pakistani custom of arranged marriage, presenting him with a Muslim girl and urging him to return home to marry. Meanwhile, a mysterious illness strikes Emily, rendering her in a coma. Kumail chooses to stand by Emily's family during this difficult time, all while resisting the mounting pressure from his own parents.
