Spoilers ahead

Two seasoned con artists, Chetan Chauhan, [Sanjay Dutt], and Bhagat Bhosle, [Ajay Devgn], have just pulled off a slick theft from Anthony Gonsalves, [Arjun Rampal]. Bhagat deftly snatches a suitcase from Anthony by swapping it with a fake one, hoping to walk away clean, but the real suitcase slips out of the decoy and Anthony gives chase. A quick pivot later, Anthony discovers his car has vanished, only for Chetan to drive the stolen vehicle to a repair shop and have its color changed, a ruse meant to throw off any pursuing eyes. What begins as a high-stakes heist quickly spirals into a tangled web of rivalries, uneasy alliances, and shifting loyalties.
