In addition to inviting the hungry superhero over for a thank-you dinner of spaghetti, meatballs, and family togetherness with his dubious, dewy [wife] (Charlize Theron) and their bright sprite of a son (Friday Night Lights' Jae Head), Ray gets the idealistic brainstorm to rehabilitate Hancock with a personalized image makeover.

The thicket of exposition (the work of rookie screenwriter Sabrina Dhawan) is dense, but it boils down to the stormy days preceding the arranged marriage of Aditi (Vasundhara Das, as dewy and saucer-[eyed] as Winona Ryder used to be) to Hemant (Parvin Dabas). 



Aditi loves a good-for-nothing married man, and petulantly considers her husband-to-be—who has flown in from Houston—her ticket out of misery. 



The upcoming day is also a significant trial for her financially strapped father, Lalit (Naseeruddin Shah), who handles the affair's speed bumps with Spencer Tracy-esque disgruntlement.
