Description: Arun Prajapati, played by Salman Khan, is struggling to achieve success as a TV anchor, but his efforts seem to be in vain. Frustrated, he blames God, portrayed by Amitabh Bachchan, for his misfortunes. Arun is deeply in love with Alia Kapoor, a renowned TV anchor and star played by Priyanka Chopra, who works in the same channel. However, he has never been able to express his feelings to her.
When Rocky, played by Sohail Khan, is hired as a new anchor for the channel, Arun fears that Rocky will win Alia’s heart. Soon after, Arun loses his job and feels utterly hopeless. In a twist of events, he encounters God in person. After a heated argument, God grants Arun the power to control everything in the universe for ten days, allowing him to prove he can manage it better.
Arun uses this newfound power to outshine Rocky and win Alia’s affection. However, God reprimands him for focusing solely on his own desires. Consequently, Arun begins to listen to people’s prayers but soon realizes that fulfilling everyone’s individual wishes is too time-consuming. To save effort, he grants all wishes indiscriminately, including those of criminals and Rocky’s wish to marry Alia.
Confused and upset, Arun questions God about the chaos in his life. God explains that it is Arun’s own doing and that not everything can be blamed on Him. Feeling remorseful, Arun apologizes, and God forgives him, giving him a fresh start. During a game show, Arun cleverly exposes Rocky’s dishonesty about loving Alia, who happens to be present at the event. As a result, Alia turns against Rocky, and Arun finally wins her heart.
