Kabir Ahlawat lives a quiet life running a [[pawn shop]] in [[Goa]]. Kabir's next-door neighbor is Anna, a drug addict and bar dancer living with her little daughter Naomi, who develops a special bond with Kabir. [[Assistant Commissioner of Police|ACP]] Dilip Sangodkar, who is working with the [[Narcotics Control Bureau|NCB]], is after Mantoo, a crime boss supported by Kevin Ferriera and his brother Luke Ferriera, who control a mass racket in [[Organ trade#Illegal organ trade|organ harvesting]] and [[Illegal drug trade|drug manufacturing]] with Attila, a professional assassin.


One night, Anna and her boyfriend steal drugs from Mantoo's henchman Big Show. Anna hides the drugs in a camera and pawns to Kabir. The consignment loss enrages Mantoo, who assigns Kevin to recover the stolen drugs. Luke and Attila reach Anna's place, where they torture Anna for the camera and Naomi becomes an eyewitness to the brutal torments. Unwittingly, Anna reveals the location of the drug as a response, where Big Show enters Kabir's house along with his man Viju Dempo, demanding the camera. Kabir is obliged to hand the camera to Luke when he tells him that Naomi and Anna are his captives.
Unwittingly, Anna reveals the location of the drug, as a response to which Big Show enters Kabir's house along with his man Viju Dempo, demanding the camera. Kabir is obliged to hand the camera to Luke when he tells that Naomi and Anna are his captives. Kabir gets a call from Kevin to make a delivery to Mantoo, and promises to release them, if the delivery is successful. He delivers the drugs to Mantoo, where he finds that [[police officer|cop]]s have already raided Mantoo's haven. Mantoo flees, and Kabir chases him, but is arrested by the cops when they find Anna's corpse with all her organs harvested in Kabir's car. Kevin brutally murders Mantoo, claiming all his organs, and becomes the new drug lord. During interrogation, Kabir escapes from the police station. The officers are bewildered by his combat skills and find out he was a former decorated [[Research and Analysis Wing|RAW]] [[Special forces of India|Special Forces soldier]], who retired after his pregnant wife Rukshida was killed in stray terrorist gunfire outside a hospital.

Kabir delivers the drugs to Mantoo, where he finds that the cops have already raided Mantoo's haven. Mantoo flees and Kabir chases him, but is arrested by the cops when they find Anna's corpse with all her organs harvested in Kabir's car. Kevin brutally finishes Mantoo, claiming all his organs, and becomes the new drug lord. During interrogation, Kabir escapes from the police station.
Kabir fights with Attila at a [[nightclub]] and is shot, but breaks into a medical shop and performs an impromptu surgery. He then continues on his journey. Kabir finds and frees several child slaves in a drug manufacturing plant, and in the process, kills Luke. He tracks down Kevin, who tells that he has had Naomi killed. He shows a container that has what he says are her eyes. Kabir kills all the gang members, including Attila and Kevin. As he prepares to commit suicide out of grief, Naomi emerges. She had been saved by Attila before her eye surgery; he took pity on her because she had been kind to him. The eyes in the container belonged to the gangsters' surgeon, who had been killed by Attila as the latter took to save Naomi. Kabir is arrested, but the officers allow Naomi to ride with him. Kabir asks them to stop at a [[convenience store]], where he buys a backpack and school supplies for Naomi. Kabir asks her if she can manage until he returns, to which she agrees with him and the two embrace.

Enraged, Kabir kills all the gang members, including Attila and Kevin. As Kabir prepares to commit suicide out of grief, an unscathed Naomi arrives. It is revealed that Attila, who took pity on her because she had been kind to him, had spared her life -- the eyes in the container belonged to the gangsters' surgeon. Kabir gets arrested, but the officers allow Naomi to ride with him. Kabir asks them to stop at a [[convenience store]], where he buys a backpack and school supplies for Naomi.

Plot

[edit]

Kabir Ahlawat lives a quiet life running a pawn shop in Goa. Kabir's next-door neighbor is Anna, a drug addict and bar dancer living with her little daughter Naomi, who develops a special bond with Kabir. ACP Dilip Sangodkar, who is working with the NCB, is after Mantoo, a crime boss supported by Kevin Ferriera and his brother Luke Ferriera, who control a mass racket in organ harvesting and drug manufacturing with Attila, a professional assassin.

One night, Anna and her boyfriend steal drugs from Mantoo's henchman Big Show. Anna hides the drugs in a camera and pawns to Kabir. The consignment loss enrages Mantoo, who assigns Kevin to recover the stolen drugs. Luke and Attila reach Anna's place, where they torture Anna for the camera and Naomi becomes an eyewitness to the brutal torments. Unwittingly, Anna reveals the location of the drug as a response, where Big Show enters Kabir's house along with his man Viju Dempo, demanding the camera. Kabir is obliged to hand the camera to Luke when he tells him that Naomi and Anna are his captives.

Kabir gets a call from Kevin to make a delivery to Mantoo and promises to release them if the delivery is successful. Kabir delivers the drugs to Mantoo, where he finds that the cops have already raided Mantoo's haven. Mantoo flees and Kabir chases him, but is arrested by the cops when they find Anna's corpse with all her organs harvested in Kabir's car. Kevin brutally finishes Mantoo, claiming all his organs, and becomes the new drug lord. During interrogation, Kabir escapes from the police station.

The officers are bewildered by his combat skills and learn that Kabir was a former decorated RAW soldier, who retired after his pregnant wife Rukshida was killed by stray terrorist gunfire outside a hospital. Kabir fights with Attila at a nightclub and is shot, but breaks into a medical shop and performs an impromptu surgery. Kabir then continues on his journey, where he finds and frees several child slaves in a drug manufacturing plant. Kabir kills Luke at the plant and tracks down Kevin, who tells him that he had Naomi killed and shows a container that has what he says are her eyes.

Enraged, Kabir kills all the gang members, including Attila and Kevin. As Kabir prepares to commit suicide out of grief, an unscathed Naomi arrives. It is revealed that Attila, who took pity on her because she had been kind to him, had spared her life -- the eyes in the container belonged to the gangsters' surgeon. Kabir gets arrested, but the officers allow Naomi to ride with him. Kabir asks them to stop at a convenience store, where he buys a backpack and school supplies for Naomi. Kabir asks her if she can manage until he returns, to which she agrees with him and the two embrace.
