Embedded with laughs, this contemporary romantic comedy follows the fluctuating fortunes in the light of Arun Prajapati, a cynical man who has been trying to be a successful TV anchor but success has always eluded him. He only blames God for this. Arun is head over heels in love with Alia, who is a TV anchor and a well-known star working in the same channel but he has never been able to express his love for her. Destiny plays a cruel game with him when Rocky is appointed as an anchor for the channel. Arun starts believing that Rocky will win over Alia. Circumstances get further out of hand for Arun when he gets thrown out of the channel. He has nobody to blame but God Himself. And very soon he has an encounter with the Almighty. An argument ensues between the two. God then decides to give Arun the power to run earth for seven days as Arun claims that he can do a better job. After Arun becomes God, he becomes successful. He puts Rocky into an uneasy spot and wins Alia's heart. Also, he grants everybody's wish. But much to his dismay this becomes the biggest problem of his life. What will he do, when he finally comes to the realisation that the cosmic balance is more important than individual gains?

Trivia:
The film marks Rumi Jaffrey's directorial debut.

People believed the film to be a remake of the American movie Bruce Almighty (2003). Director Rumi Jaffrey however, denied this, claiming that it was inspired by a village folk tale about a Brahmin.

The film was banned in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) as many Muslim viewers felt that the movie violated Islamic teachings of a man blaming god for all the things which aren't going right for him and also that a man (Amitabh Bachchan) enacted the role of God. The main reason why the viewers were unhappy was because the creator of the film himself was a Muslim.

The film was initially titled God is Great, but was renamed after Salman Khan suggested that it needed an Indian touch.
