Plot
Raghuram "Raghu" Rathod and Siya Verma are lovers and ATS officers who lead a happy life despite any dangers. On the day before their marriage, Raghu and Siya are summoned by ACP Aditya Bhardwaaj, who assigns them to protect CM Dwarakanath Dutta as someone is plotting to kill Dutta. It is revealed that Bhardwaaj is the one who plotted to kill Dutta. Bharadwaaj secretly blackmails Raghu to murder Dutta in exchange for saving Siya, who is on duty at another location.
Left with no choice, Raghu murders Dutta upon a confrontation from the latter's son Aditya Dutta. Raghu tries to flee, but gets cornered by Bhardwaaj and his man Tiwari. The three take Raghu to a rundown factory and kill him. However, Raghu survives and is charred completely, where he reaches out to his friend Popo. Popo's sister, who works at a lab, explains to them that there is a severe case of radiation and there is no cure for it. Raghi swallows an untested potion which, but this causes a complete cell regeneration, which causes him to become invisible in all lights except blue light and direct sun light. Siya also believes that Raghu killed Dutta and begins to hate him, where she plunges into work to avoid feeling the pain of heartbreak.
Raghu regains his composure, where he sets out to kill those who landed him into a situation. The first on his target is Tiwari. After a drunken night when Tiwari is driving home, Raghu finds him and tells that he will kill him in 24 hours. A panicked Tiwari narrates this to his colleagues, who don't take him seriously. Raghu kills Tiwari and Siya discovers Raghu, where she tries to tap him via Popo, but Raghu escapes from Siya's arrest. Raghu's next target is Aditya Dutt, whose security is entrusted on Siya. After a long battle with Siya, Raghu manages to kill him, but Siya is not willing to back down.
When senior authorities give the responsibility of shooting down Mr. X in an encounter, Siya backs out from the plan. Raghu gets drawn towards her love and the two spend some special days with each other. The duo goes for lunch to a quiet place, where Raghu realizes it is a police trap and gets arrested. Raghu is taken to a dilapidated place by Bhardwaaj, who wants to make sure that Raghu is dead. Popo, who attempts a suicide after being attacked by Bhardwaaj, tells Siya that Bhardwaj had hatched a plan to kill Raghu.
Siya goes to the place where Raghu and Bhardwaaj engage in a duel. Siya urges Raghu to leave Bhardwaaj. Siya later tricks Bhardwaaj into a nerving confession recorded on camera by her father Devraj and exposes him at a press conference. Bhardwaaj tries to kill Siya, but Raghu kills him. Siya reunites with Raghu despite his condition, where the two get married.
