The film starts off with the kidnapping of Home Minister Prashant Goswami's (Tushar Dalvi) only son Rohan Goswami (Vishesh Bansal) by Nirmal Kumar (Irrfan Khan). The kidnapping does not happen in a day's time. It's only after Nirmal 'studies' all the activities and movements of his 'target' Rohan, does he manage to kidnap him after drugging his food. Needless to say, this kidnapping shakes not just the Home Minister Prashant Goswami and his wife, but also his cabinet ministers. Being a high profile case, the razor sharp Nachiket Verma (Jimmy Sheirgill) gets chosen for the job of bringing back Prashant Goswami's son. And when the kidnapper Nirmal calls up Prashant Goswami, the latter who was expecting a ransom in the form of some money, gets shell shocked to hear Nirmal's strange demand. Amidst all this, Nachiket Verma and his team manage to track down Nirmal and his whereabouts. At the same time, Nirmal calls Prashant Goswami and demands him to have an open discussion before the general public, something that Prashant Goswami agrees to. But, this time round, Nachiket Verma instructs his team to shoot Nirmal the very moment they see him. Does Nirmal keep his promise and fearlessly meet Prashant Goswami in front of everyone, does Nirmal really keep the child Rohan safe in his 'custody', and why exactly is Nirmal doing all this, is what forms the rest of the story.
