Renowned heart specialist Dr. Viren Goenka, his wife Sanjana and their
seven-year-old daughter Anishka are a happy family in Mumbai. Their joys have
just multiplied with Viren being honoured with a prestigious award for his
contribution to the medical world. Viren is all set to visit New Delhi to
receive this award in a grand function. He promises his daughter to take her for
a fabulous family vacation once he returns. But fate had something else planned
for Viren and his family. Destiny strikes hard against them and Anishka is
kidnapped under Sanjana's nose. She is startled with the presence of a creepy
man named Krish in her house. Krish tells her that Anishka will be fine as long
as Sanjana and Dr. Goenka follow his instructions.
While Krish keeps Sanjana in the house, his partner Roohi keeps Viren confined
in his hotel room and their third associate Kabir holds Anishka at a remote
location.The kidnappers keep strict half-hour checks with each other by cell
phones, and if all goes as planned, the whole act would take only 24 hours. The
kidnappers set the ransom to a whopping amount of Rs 3 Crore. It doesn't take
much for Viren and Sanjana to realize that abiding by the kidnappers' rules is
the best thing that they could do to save their daughter's life. Viren mortgages
everything possible, including his dream hospital project and his house and
somehow manages to collect Rs 3 Crore in just 24 hours, an act next to
impossible being trapped at one place.
But it seems that testing time had just begun for the already suffering family.
Something highly unfortunate strikes and the kidnappers flee without any sign of
their daughter and take away the ransom money as well. Both Sanjana and Viren
are uncertain about what could have happened and fear for the life of their only
beloved daughter Anishka. Viren wants his daughter back at any cost and thus he
tries to exploit all his resources. Entire police force is on move to search for
any clues of the kidnappers or Anishka but they can't discover anything
significant. As the clock ticks away, a series of incidents take place and the
turmoil almost changes each life. What happens next is the harsh reality that
crosses a thin line between life... and death
