The movie features an ensemble cast comprising of Rishi Kapoor, Salman Khan, Ameesha Patel, Rati Agnihotri, Rinke Khanna, and Kader Khan, among others. The plot revolves around the life of Raj Saxena (played by Rishi Kapoor), a renowned businessman in Bangkok, who lives with his mother (played by Rati Agnihotri) and daughter Sonia (played by Rinke Khanna). Raj is an incorrigible flirt and a fun-loving person who is always enjoying life to the fullest. However, he has a strained relationship with his father, who left him and his mother when Raj was just a child.

One day, Raj receives a letter from his father (played by Kader Khan), who invites Raj and his family to India to attend his 60th birthday celebrations. Raj is hesitant at first, but his mother convinces him to go. Once in India, Raj is introduced to his father's family, which includes his stepmother (played by Reema Lagoo) and his stepbrother (played by Salman Khan). Raj is shocked to learn that his father is a wealthy industrialist and that he has been pretending to be poor all these years.

Raj is initially hesitant to accept his father's wealth, but he is slowly drawn into his father's business dealings. He also falls in love with his stepbrother's childhood friend, Rinkie Khanna (played by Ameesha Patel), who is studying for a Ph.D. in History. However, Raj's flirtatious nature and his strained relationship with his father create complications in his life.

The movie is a light-hearted comedy that explores themes of family, love, and ambition. The performances of Rishi Kapoor and Salman Khan are the highlights of the film. Rishi Kapoor is charming and endearing as the fun-loving Raj, while Salman Khan delivers a convincing performance as the ambitious and serious-minded Raju.

The film's music, composed by Himesh Reshammiya, is also a major highlight. The songs, including "Chudi Khankayi Re" and "O Jaane Jigar", are catchy and upbeat, and they add to the film's overall festive atmosphere.
