Sanjay Mehra (Rakesh Roshan) is a scientist obsessed with
establishing contacts with extraterrestrial life. He invents
many innovative gadgets, instruments and finally succeeds
in devising a computer that can transmit message to space.
His foresight becomes reality when as a response to his
signals, a spaceship is sighted in the sky. But before
Sanjay can even enjoy his success, he and his pregnant
wife Sonia (Rekha) meet with a horrific accident where
Sonia survives but Sanjay loses his life. Sanjay's son
Rohit is born. He is a mentally challenged child who faces
ridicule and torment at every phase of his life. His lone
companion is Nisha (Preity Zinta) whose compassion draws
her towards Rohit.
 One
day Rohit discovers his father's old computer and calls
Nisha to help him use it. Both ofthem are completely
fascinated by the images and instructions that appear
on the screen and relentlessly experiment with the device;
not realizing the impact this would have. The whole
town witnesses a blackout and a bizarre phenomenon…
in an incandescent glowing sky… a colossal spaceship
is sighted. However more strange findings are in store
for Rohit's town - A pair of footprints not belonging
to man or animal are found.
Has
Rohit and Nisha's town been invaded by an extraterrestrial?
Can they foresee danger? Or does the alien speak the
language of love?
