== Plot ==
The plot of the film revolves around two significant events, the hijacking of IC-814 in 1999, and the attack on the [[Indian]] Parliament in 2001. It is focused on Ajay Sanyal, the director of [[India]]'s Intelligence Bureau. He concocts a daring plan to sneak into Pakistan and take out a terrorist network which is very powerful and dangerous.

To help him do this risky operation, Sanyal picks a very surprising accomplice - a young man from Punjab who is 20 years old and in prison for a crime that he committed as an act of revenge. When Sanyal sees the boy's hidden talents and his determination, he takes the decision to coach him and to make him an under-cover agent who can infiltrate and live in the perilous underworld of Karachi.
