Spoilers ahead
A Akshay Kumar stars as Aarush, a man famously known as a Panauti—someone considered extremely unlucky. His job at a Macao casino involves spreading his bad luck to players at the poker tables, as he gets paid whenever others lose. Despite his misfortune, Aarush yearns for a happy life, especially with the woman he loves, Malaika Arora Khan. Unfortunately, his relationship with Pooja faces rejection, culminating in her elder brother, Major Krishna Rao (played by Arjun Rampal), physically confronting him and telling him to stay away. This act unfolds under confusing circumstances, as Krishna does not actually see Aarush’s face when he punches him.
