Plot

A young woman, Aisha Verma (Shraddha Kapoor), tries to leave behind a message for her husband, Guru Divekar (Siddharth Malhotra), who then calls her, but the call is disrupted when a masked man enters Aisha's house and kills her by throwing her off the window. At her funeral, CBI officer Aditya Rathore (Shaad Randhawa) points out that it is vital to track down the murderer or else Guru will go on a killing spree. Guru's past is shown in flashbacks. He used to be a ruthless hitman working for mob boss Caeser (Remo Fernandes), who raised and trained him so that Guru could have a chance to murder the goons who killed his parents. Guru is arrested for killing a young man, Debu, but is bailed, as Debu's mother, a witness, refuses to testify against him. She warns Guru that she did not testify because one day, God will make him pay for his crimes, and he will also lose a loved one.
