Ramanaidu) is a Zamindar and owner of a palace called Swarna Palace, who died because of debts and they lost their entire property. Suraj swears on his mother to again buy their palace in any circumstances and make his mother happy. Lilly (Raveena Tandon) is a petty thief, a very greedy woman and Suraj falls in love with her at first sight, but she turns him down. Chota Ravan (Shakti Kapoor), a rowdy opponent to Lilly, teases Suraj a lot and he falls sick.

Meanwhile, in hell, Yamraj (Kader Khan) (God of death) and Chitragupt (Asrani) misplace a book called Bhavishyavaani, which shows the future of man. The book somehow falls on the roof of Suraj's house, he benefits a lot by reading predictions of the future in the book and becomes rich and Chota Ravan is surprised how Suraj became rich in a short time. Lord Brahma warns Yamraj and Chitragupt that within one month they should find the book, otherwise they lose their supernatural powers. On earth, Suraj again buys their palace and takes his mother to it and he asks his mother if she wants anything else. She asks him to get married, so Suraj again opens the book to see whether his marriage will happen with Lilly or not. He then reads that his mother will die that night at 10 PM. To fulfill his mother's last wish, Suraj plays a marriage drama with Lilly, but accidentally his mother does not die and Lilly reveals all this drama which leads to his mother's anger and she stops talking to him until he really brings back Lilly as her daughter-in-law.
