They assigned agents Bobby and Mr. Arjun Singh to infiltrate the terrorists, known to be operating from Bulgaria. Bobby and Arjun accepted this assignment, but Arjun leaves the mission when he finds out that Don Raja, a Bulgarian-based international gangster who was previously a Police Inspector of Nashik, is the mastermind behind these terrorist attacks. After resigning, he decides to chase Don Raja on his own as he has a personal grudge to settle with him. A patriotic civilian named Asad befriended Arjun. Asad lost his family to a terrorist group led by Don Raja and trying to take revenge. Boby contacted Asad for help. On the other side, Arjun also tried to convince Raja's girlfriend Sarah, an ex-film heroine, for information, but the latter was arrested by the Bulgarian police as a suspected terrorist. One India n-Bulgarian female police officer, Sofie, helped him escape from the prison and assist Arjun in the mission. Arjun realized that an Indian secret agent is working for Don Raja. [4]
