Spoilers ahead

On a rainy night, Jaydeep Raj Babbar meets Vikramjeet Sharat Saxena at his door and invites him inside for drinks, setting a taut, uneasy mood that threads the tale from the very first moment. As the conversation unfolds, Jaydeep confesses that his wife Neha Dimple Kapadia is having an affair with Sagar Suresh Oberoi, but this admission isn’t a truthful confession—it’s a calculated trap meant to lure Vikramjeet into helping Jaydeep carry out a brutal act of revenge. The tension thickens as Jaydeep leverages a photo of Vikramjeet disposing of a dead body and a history of aliases tied to drug dealing to coerce his reluctant accomplice, who finally agrees for a price of ₹1,00,000.
