Amitabh Bachchan- In a desi rip-off of the Hollywood blockbuster 'Bruce Almighty', Amitabh Bachchan played God in 'God Tussi Great Ho'. Although the desi version tanked at the box office, we think no one other than Bahchchan Sr would have carried it off.

Rishi Kapoor- Rishi Kapoor did a cameo in Kunal Kohli's 'Thoda Pyaar Thoda Magic' where he played God. He sends a naughty angel Geeta (Rani Mukherjee) to Saif Ali Khan's house as a governess. We won't blame you if you don't remember the film other than Ameesha in a lemon yellow bikini, but then so do we!

Gracy Singh- In one of the many past life regression sessions in the doomed 'Dangerous Ishq', Gracy Singh was seen playing Meera Bai. Karisma Kapoor's comeback film had a headache inducing storyline and so Gracy's divine act may need some regression sessions to be remembered.

Saurabh Shukla- Funnyman Saurabh Shukla plays God in 'Oh My God' who constantly tries to help salesman Rajendra Dubey (Vinay Pathak) become succesful. From a businessman to a hawaldar, Shukla plays it all to help Dubey, while the latter wants to succeed only through ethical ways.

Sanjay Dutt- Playing the God of Death (Yamraj) in 'Vaah! Life Ho Toh Aisi!' was actor Sanjay Dutt. The story unfolds as Dutt mistakenly takes Aditya (Shahid Kapoor) instead of someone else. Dutt was best remembered for his funky car and ugly red suits in the film.
