Plot:
Rookie journalist Roma Singh pursues the case of former gym instructor Vishal Agnihotri, jailed for murdering the men who raped his sister-in-law and murdered his wife. Roma's employer, blind press baron Mr. Jindal too takes a keen interest in the case and Vishal is set free in the eye of the circumstances, much to the disgust of Roma's boyfriend Inspector Amar Saxena. Jindal unveils that he needs Vishal's help in ridding Mumbai of its criminal activities, most of which are controlled by once friends turned rival crime bosses Jibraan and Tyson, since official channels are not sufficient to bring them to the books. Amar on the other hand is trailing Vishal since his release and as coincidence sights Vishal everytime on spots where Tyson's and Jibraan's gang members are found dead. But Vishal himself will have to figure out what exactly Jindal's motives are and how Amar via his deceased father's friendship with Jindal is connected to the conspiracy.
