Plot

Sathya a.k.a Mass Cool is the right-hand man of a casino owner named Don David, who offers him money and sends him on a mission to recover a hard disk belonging to his ex-girlfriend Milan. The hard disk contains some private files as he was in a relationship with Milan, who is now threatening him as he is now living a family life with his wife and children. Later, Sathya learns that David is betraying him and learns that David never had a family and the money given to him was fake.

Sathya becomes friends with Milan and asks her what was really on the hard disk. Milan reveals that David had taken a loan from her bank manager friend, who later committed suicide as David had no intention of paying it back. However, the manager had recorded a private clip of David and Sathya uses the clip to threaten David in order to pay back the loan where David pays back the loan.

As revenge, David causes a car crash to Milan leading her to be hospitalised and in urgent need of blood. The doctor reveals that Milan has a rare blood group Bombay O+ and only two persons has the blood group. With the first person dead, the only person remaining with the same blood group was a bar dancer named Rosy.

Sathya travels to K.G.F and brings Rosy, a bar dancer who has the blood by paying a debt she owed which forced her to work in a dance bar. David tries to stop Rosy from getting to Milan and sends some goons against them, but Sathya overpowers them. Sathya along with Rosy on the road once again faces David and a car chase ensues but Sathya confuses and tricks David to chase a police car which has another Rosy from the same bar.

Milan is rescued and asks Sathya about the reason of helping her. Sathya tells that he wanted a bank loan through her help so that he can open a club. Few months later, Sathya finally opens a club with Milan and Rosy's help.
