Thank God (2022) Synopsis

Ayaan Kapoor (Sidharth Malhotra) is a real estate businessman who is in debt of Rs 16 Crores. He had a growing real estate business but fell into debt due to his involvement in black money (he was doing real estate deals involving 80% black and only 20% white) and subsequent demonetization (which left him with stacks of cash, which he could not offload to anyone). His loan application at the bank has been rejected. He wanted to sell his house to repay his debt but could not find any buyer and starts living at his wife's house with his wife, Inspector Ruhi (Rakul Preet Singh) and daughter Pihu (Kiara Khanna). Ayaan ignores his mother (Seema Pahwa), and says he is in a meeting, whenever she calls. Ayaan's sister is using her husband's savings to fix her dad's ancestral home. Ayaan knew that his dad loved that home, but doesn't contribution to its renovation. The sister does this as she believes that due to her negligence the house was burnt down. To reduce his sister's guilt Ruhi suggests making a story that the house didn't burn down by Ruhi, Diwali Diya, but by Ayaan's firecrackers. This offends him. Ayaan is a deeply religious person, but doesn't believe in donations or feeding the needy. Ayaan almost sells the house to a nice couple who wanted to buy it for their adopted son. Ayaan mistakenly reveals this to the son, who had no clue that he was adopted. The son, goes crying to his parents, scuttling the deal.One day, Ayaan gets involved in a road accident, and regains consciousness in Heaven, where the gods Yamaduta YD (Mahesh Balraj) and Chitragupta CG (Ajay Devgn) provide him a chance to send him back to Earth by asking him to play a game called Game of Life. In a brief history on Ayaan, we learn that he is 33 years old and wanted to be a police officer when he was a kid. Ayaan is shown that after the accident, he is in surgery and will be there for the next 5 hrs. During that time CG will play his game with Ayaan. If Ayaan refuses to play, he will burn in hell forever. There are two containers, one to be filled with white balls, which represent his positives, and the other with black balls, which represent his sins and weaknesses. If the white balls fill first, he gets to go back home. If the black balls fill first, he goes to hell. The initial position for Ayaan is very tough as he starts off with a lot of black balls.Ayaan has a short temper, on his honeymoon, he assaulted a fat and irritating person (Kiku Sharda) in the lift, when he needlessly delayed the lift by talking to this wife and pressing extra buttons inside the lift (he forgot the floor). Ayaan is accused of being greedy as he leaked his father's (who is bio professor) to his friend for rs 2000. Today, that friend is a surgeon and performing the operation on Ayaan. Next, CG asks Ayaan to negotiate with a corrupt builder to get the right price for the Juhu Bungalow of Mr & Mrs Gaikwad. The builder bought it for Rs 3 Crores, which is far lower than the market price. When Ayaan calls, the builder refuses to negotiate. CG reveals that Ayaan himself was the corrupt builder.Ayaan is shown to be jealous of his wife Ruhi as she's an inspector in the crime branch whereas Ayaan had failed to become an inspector. Ayaan claims that Ruhi never caught any criminal and if he was the inspector, he would have made top cop, a Singham. Chitragupta puts him in a scenario where he's an inspector tasked to save a hostage inside a bank. The hostage is a fellow police office and asks him to shoot through him to kill the terrorist. However, his failure to do so (Ayaan has a terrible aim) shows him that the reality is that he couldn't have been a better inspector when compared to Ruhi. In the same situation, Ruhi talks to the terrorist and figures out that his wife died, and his son is in the hospital. He doesn't have money, which is why he is robbing a bank. Ruhi disarms him and asks the bank staff to donate money for his son's treatment. His son was operated on, and he is now living a healthy life. Ayaan is shown to be the one who believes in God, but he still gets black balls because of his lack of humanity. Ayaan used to visit a Hanuman temple regularly, but it was more of a bribe than faith. Also, he ignored an old woman's plea for food, and she died 30 mins after he left.Later, the game changes when Ayaan finally gets white balls for controlling his anger (he is disgusted by his mother eating a mango in a sloppy way. But he then pulls out a photo album to rejig his memories about how much his mother loved him unconditionally. He realizes that his mom eats all the mango kernels, so he can eat the fleshy part of the fruit). Next Ayaan is given a task to resist his lust by putting him in a room with Nora Fatehi (whom he admires a lot). He can resist the temptation by picturing his mother. His challenges also include apologizing his elder sister (Urmilla Kothare) for falsely blaming her during their childhood of the burning their father's house. In heaven, Ayaan gets beaten by his father (Kanwaljit Singh) due to which he apologizes to his sister. He wins by earning white balls due to which Chitragupta awards him a check of 18 Crores for the sale of house, something that even Ayaan couldn't do. However, Chitragupta sees Nora's phone number in lipstick on Ayaan's elbow, earning him many black balls. Chitragupta shows him reality, where his wife and relatives were planning to buy him a new car after hearing that his car would be towed due to his bank loan. But the car which collided with Aayan's car was the new car that Ruhi bought for Ayaan.He returns to earth (CG had promised him hell if he lost, and he figures there would be no worse hell than for him to witness the condition of his family) where Doctor tells him that Pihu's kidneys are damaged and Ruhi's one kidney was transplanted, but Pihu's body rejected it. Then Ruhi's 2nd kidney is also infected. Now Ayaan needs 2 kidneys to save the, Aayan earns reputation in real estate but was about to lose his family. Ayaan signed a donor form (for both his kidneys) before becoming unconscious again due to overdose of some pills. Later, he again returns to heaven where Chitragupta and his father are proud of him. Chitragupta blesses Ayaan and his family with a new life. The Doctors give Ayaan news that a man bought his dead relative's body but didn't reveal his name. However, it's revealed that the man was wearing a locket where it was written CG.
