Ansari has now got a new case in the midst of all the chaos, where one guy, Laksh (Karan Hariharan) has been found unconscious on Calangute beach. He is brutally hurt on his head and has lost substantial part of his memory. After the brief investigation, police get to know his whereabouts in Goa. As the police team reaches the resort where Laksh and his six other friends from Delhi are staying, they found one of his friend dead in one toilet of a cottage and all other friends are missing.
Now, Ansari is left with only one suspect-cum-victim-cum survivor, Laksh, who hardly remembers anything that has happened. [1]
