Aditya Srivastav (Bobby Deol) is an ex-army officer who was once in love with
his senior officer's daughter, Payal (Lara Dutta). He was a brave and promising
soldier but was asked to leave the force for not obeying his senior's order, the
reason being a strong difference of opinion.
His disobedience and subsequent removal from army was looked upon so poorly that
even Payal had to bid him farewell. He started a travel agency and looked after
his younger college-going brother Anuj (Ritesh Deshmukh), coming to terms with
his disturbing past. Anuj is a mischief loving daredevil who thrills on his
antics with his friends. But one day, his deeds cross all acceptable limits. The
college principal warns Aditya of his younger brother's delinquency. When Aditya
takes this up with Anuj, they have an altercation over the issue following which
Anuj leaves the house in a fit of anger.
When Anuj doesn't return the next day, Aditya tries to trace him through friends
and colleagues but to no avail after which he lodges a police complaint, fearing
the worst, only to discover that his brother is no more, shot in a police
encounter while in possession of drugs. Shattered, Aditya simply cannot accept
his brother could do something like this and decides to personally uncover the
truth behind his brother's death. From here, the story takes a new turn.
In the course of his investigation, Aditya doesn't find the police FIR very
convincing. His search for the truth uncovers the series of terrible events that
lead to his brother's death. Aditya decides to take it upon himself to clear up
his dead brother's image when the police refuse to do so. He takes recourse to
the justice system and goes to court, taking the help of Payal, who is now a
lawyer and old emotions are now slowly rekindled.
However, his adversaries will stop at nothing to ensure that the truth remains
hidden and Aditya has no option but to take up the gun to prove his brother's
innocence.
