Plot
An advertising executive, Aditya has a beautiful wife, Pooja and a beautiful mistress, Malvika. This secret affair is the catalyst for much of the plot. Adi gets into a scuffle with a bunch of gangsters led by Ramanbhai,. To add to the tension, Ramanbhai is under duress because his colleague, Vilas Pandey is after his life.
A small-scale gang war erupts in the city: A police Inspector Patankar is changing sides faster than a chameleon, a rival gang lord Prafulla Kalia is offering deals and — in the middle of all this — Aditya finds himself stuck. A fast-paced sequence of events happen in the span of one single night.
