How ‘God Tussi Great Ho’ set a precedent for films based on divine beliefs

Author: Muneeb Maqsood

‘God Tussi Great Ho’ was a film that advised one on how to act in tough situations and guided one on transforming their life for the better.

Also, and most importantly, the film set a precedent for other film based on divine beliefs like ‘PK.

The film also gives out several strong messages such as the spoils of cheating others and thinking too highly of one’s self.

This film starred famous actors such as Amitabh Bachchan, Salman Khan, Priyanka Chopra and Sohail Khan and was directed by Rumi Jaffrey. It was produced by Afzal Khan and Sohail Khan. The film released on August 15, 2008.

Like I mentioned earlier, the film highlighted how cheating can be fatal and can cause life-long damages. It is one of the worst things you can inflict on someone. One might get small-term benefits when they cheat someone, but in the longer run, the cheater is always exposed and has to face a lot of embarrassment.

In this film, Salman Khan’s character makes a lie-detecting chair. Sohail Khan tampers with it, and as a result, Salman is fired from his job. Sohail is caught later and faces a lot of embarrassment. There’s also a message of appreciating someone’s hard work and to abstain from envy or jealousy.

Like I mentioned earlier, the film highlighted how cheating can be fatal and can cause life-long damages. It is one of the worst things you can inflict on someone. One might get short-term benefits when they cheat on someone, but in the long run, the cheater is always exposed and has to face a lot of embarrassment

These days, people suffer from superiority complexes, not knowing that we all are equal and talented in our own ways. Rich people look down upon the poor. Also, people who look down upon others are seldom happy. When Salman’s character acquires immense powers, he starts thinking of himself as the ultimate and the most superior. Later, when the love of his life leaves him and things start going wrong, he realises how wrong he was.

Amitabh who acted as a god he took the world back of ten days. Everything becomes normal. Before Salam was a loser again he became a loser. But he stopped thinking superior and became a perfect person. After some days he became succussful and also got his girlfriend back. Doesn’t mater you are poor but you must not think superior than your poverty can not stop you for getting succuss. Therefore, stop thinking superior and birth the love for others then you will get your destination easily.

After watching this movie I became aware about the people how are they, this movie has the power to make you understand about the world and also telling you the disadvantages of cheating to others. If yet you have not watched this movie then go for watching it right now.

‘God Tussi Great Ho’ (God you are great) is a 2008 Indian fantasy comedy film, written and directed by Rumi Jaffery and starring Amitabh Bachchan, Salman Khan, Priyanka Chopra and Sohail Khan in a friendly appearance.

According to director Rohit Dhawan, the film is inspired from a village folk tale about a Brahmin, though most reviewers noted that the film’s story-line has similarities with the 2003 Hollywood comedy ‘Bruce Almighty’, starring Jim Carrey and Jennifer Aniston.

However the film performed poorly at the box office.
