Shahrukh Khan as Kabir Khan; Vidya Malvade as Vidya Sharma; Amanda Wilkinson as German Player; Sarah O'Connor as Australian Player; Segarika Ghatge as Preeti; Anaitha Nair as Aliya; Arya Menon as Gul; Shubhi Mehta as Gunjun; Joshua Burt as Australian Coach Shimit Amin The film starts with a Hockey match. India Captain Kabir Khan (Shahrukh Khan) misses a penalty stroke in the dying minutes of the match which causes the team to lose the game, the final of a tournament against arch rivals Pakistan. The Indian media make Kabir Khan the fall guy for the defeat. Kabir is humiliated & even has to leave his ancestral home, unable to face the shame of being labelled a 'gaddaar' (traitor).
Seven years later, Kabir returns with a proposal to coach the Indian Women's Hockey team for the Hockey World Cup. The Indian Hockey Federation members are skeptical since women's Hockey in India has never acheived anything substantial. Kabir takes on the challenge and goes to the National Hockey Camp where he is introduced to the 16 young girls who play for their respective states. Kabir starts coaching them with a dream that the team will win the Hockey World Cup for India and he will finally be free of the demons of the past haunting him.
