Plot: RA.One is about a father,Shekhar Subramaniam trying very hard to fit into his son`s mean world, while the son tries to ``dude``ify his father and a mother confused between the different worlds of the father and son. Just when the two of them hit a deadlock- Shekhar strikes gold when he designs a game, which starts playing them instead of the other way round and all hell breaks loose.

Akashi (Wu) provides the moves, Jenny the programming, and Shekhar gives his face to the protagonist G.One, whilst the main antagonist Ra.One is faceless, substantially overstepping the powers granted to G.One. The game has three levels, and either of the players can only be killed in the third level with his H.A.R.T. on their chests with a special gun that has only one bullet. While designing the game, Akashi notices some malfunctions, but ignores them. When the game is finally launched, it receives a standing ovation and Prateek loves it so much that he insists on playing it instantly. He logs in under the alias 'Lucifer' and gets down to the second level easily, but is eventually interrupted by Akashi as it is time to go home. Ra.One, never been beaten before, and being unable to end his turn with Prateek, swears that Lucifer shall die. During Prateek's birthday party, Ra.One hypnotizes Sonia, disguises himself as her and kidnaps Prateek. He instructs G.One to give him his H.A.R.T. back and sends Sonia in an uncontrollable local train in Mumbai. G.One saves Sonia just at the nick of the time, and then goes back to save Prateek. The game begins with Prateek controlling G.One's moves. Following a lengthy fight, both of the characters finally reach the third level. With little powers left, the pair trick Ra.One into shooting G.One without his H.A.R.T. attached to him. Furious, Ra.One creates his ten alternatives. Unable to differentiate the real one, until they remember one of Shekhar’s saying, the pair then realizes that only one of the ten Ra.Ones has a shadow. G.One shoots him and transports himself back to the digital world with the remains of Ra.One. Several months later, Prateek and Sonia return back to the UK, where the former finally manages to restore G.One back to the real world.
