An Indian-based Scientist Sanjay Mehra devises a computer which is capable of contacting the aliens. His happiness is cut short when the scientists at a space research center scoff at him and refuse to believe his claims. While returning home with his pregnant wife he glimpses an alien spaceship and in the resulting confusion he cannot control his car, leading to a crash. His wife survives but their child's brain is damaged. Years later, their son Rohit Mehra has grown up but has thinking capacity of a child. He befriends the town Mayor's daughter Nisha which angers Nisha's suitor Raj, a spoiled brat. One day, Rohit and Nisha find Rohit's father's computer in the shed and follow the instructions provided. That very evening their town is paid a visit by an alien spaceship which lands some place nearby and takes off shortly later. But when the police inspect the footprints they discover that one of the aliens has been left behind. Then Rohit and Nisha find the alien, name him Jadoo - and watch as their lives slide into virtual chaos.
Sanjay Mehra and his wife Sonia live a middle-class life. Ranjit's passion is studying the heavenly bodies through various computers, telescopes and communicators as he believes there is life beyond Earth. He continuously transmits the sound generated by "Om", and hopes that someone somewhere will hear this and respond to it. One day he does get a respond, and he hurries to share this with experts - only to be scoffed at. Humiliated at this, he returns home and that is when an earthquake occurs, destroying the house with all the equipment, seriously injuring a pregnant Sonia, and killing Sanjay. Due to her injuries, Sonia is able to deliver a baby boy albeit with serious mental disabilities, who she names Rohit. Rohit does survive and grow up - only physically as mentally he is a mere child. Complications arise when Rohit is taunted and made fun of in school, especially when he claims that he is hiding an alien in his storage shed. Is Rohit making all this up with an overly active childish imagination for who can believe a mentally challenged individual having hallucinations about aliens and spaceships? or is he really hiding an extra-terrestrial?
