Though the younger brothers pretend they don't want to get married, they all have secret lovers: Sukun, Muskaan and Chahat.
The brothers learn through Nadeem Chacha that Bhaijaan was in love with a girl Bhagyalakshmi "Bhagya" and his brothers scheme to find her and reintroduce her to Bhaijaan to rekindle their relationship, but later find that she is married now and has a son Abhimanyu. The brothers conspire to find another woman named Bhagyalakshmi, because Bhaijaan was not in love with that girl so much as her name, where they finally meet another girl Gundamaneni Bhagyalakshmi, a Telugu-speaking girl, where they finally make Bhagya and Bhaijaan fall for each other. Bhaijaan clashes with MLA Mahavir to take care of the colony. Mahavir tries to attack the colony, but Bhaijaan thwarts their attempts.
While travelling to Bhagya's village in Telangana, Bhaijaan learns that Bhagya's brother Gundamaneni Balakrishna actually hates violence. Later, a few goons enter the train, but Bhaijaan thrashes the goons, Bhagya is shocked to see Bhaijaan, whom she thought was a non-violent person. Bhagya also learns that she was the main target to be attacked at the train. Bhaijaan learns that a goon named Kodati Nageshwara wants to kill Balakrishna and his family and had took Mahavir's help to finish Bhagya earlier.
Bhaijaan and his brothers convinces Bhagya that they will protect her family, where they arrive at Bhagya's village with a clean shaven look. Bhaijaan negotiates with Nageshwara to end his enmity, but Nageshwara refuses. After thwarting an attack on Bhagya's family, Bhaijaan reveals about Nageshwara. Balakrishna decides to end the issue and seeks forgiveness from Nageshwara. It is revealed that Nageshwara's father Rameshwara was supplying narcotics at his coffee factory.

However later, he changed the script of Bachchhan Paandey to be the remake of another Tamil film Jigarthanda instead. As Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment held the remake rights of both the films, Samji tweaked Veeram's story and pitched to Salman Khan who accepted the film.[9][10] Later, Nadiadwala walked out of the project and gave the rights to Khan, who then decided to make the film under his banner Salman Khan Films.[11]
The film was announced on 10 January 2020 with the title Kabhi Eid Kabhi Diwali.[12] The film was supposed to produce by Sajid Nadiadwala under his banner Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment, thus marking his seventh collaboration with Khan.[13] The film was made on a production and marketing budget of around ₹125 crore (US$15 million) (excluding Khan's salary).[2]
Samji narrated the story to Khan in early January 2020, and agreed to do the film in the first meeting itself.[14] However, it was later postponed for a longtime and suffered numerous pre-production delays due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[15] However, in August 2022, the film's official title was announced as Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan.[16]

In December 2021, Venkatesh joined the cast, marking his comeback to Hindi cinema after Taqdeerwala (1995).[30] Jagapathi Babu was signed in to play main antagonist role in June 2022.[31][32] About his role Babu said "There was no reservation regarding the role. Bhai [Khan] wanted me to dye my hair black and look younger. This is because he has this logic and said ‘I can’t fight a person who is older than me.’ So. we had to do that and nothing else. It wasn’t a reservation but something that the character needed."[33]
