He has no family or loved ones and has been alone in life since he can remember. Everything changes when Yash meets Maya (Genelia Deshmukh), an independent woman. Though the two get off to a rocky start, Maya warms up to him once she realises he is a cop, and apologises for the misunderstandings they had. When Maya suffers from an accident in front of Assistant Commissioner of Police Officer Yashvardhan "Yash" Singh , he rushes her to the hospital. With that, the two bond and start to meet regularly. Maya confesses her love to Yash, but Yash refuses, telling her that he does not want her to become his weakness in his professional life. However, Swati, the wife of Yash's co-worker and good friend Inspector Atul Kalsekar (Mohnish Bahl), convinces Yash that he is in love with Maya as well, and Yash decides to accept her love. In the big drug case which the unit is investigating, Yash, along with DSP Mahesh Pandey, who is transferred on special duty from the New Delhi Income Tax Department and Inspector Kamlesh Sawant (Kamlesh Sawant), kills a drug baron named Reddy (Mukesh Rishi). Yash, Mahesh, Kamlesh and Atul are suspended for killing Reddy instead of arresting him. Reddy's heartless and aggressive brother Vishnu (Vidyut Jammwal) vows to avenge Reddy's death by killing all the officers. Yash and the other officers prepare themselves for Vishnu, but Vishnu and his henchmen successfully break into Mahesh's home and brutally murder him and his wife Rachana after raping her. The event shakens Yash and the other officers, but Yash and Maya's marriage takes place. Meanwhile, Vishnu decides to attack each of the officers's weaknesses, where he kidnaps Swati and Atul is forced to tell him where Yash will be that night.

“Violence … is the last refuge of the incompetent.”
— Isaac Asimov, in Foundation (1951)
“The danger is becoming greater. As the arsenals of the superpowers grow in size and sophistication and as other governments—perhaps even, in the future, dozens of governments—acquire these weapons, it may be only a matter of time before madness, desperation, greed or miscalculation lets loose the terrible force.”
— Jimmy Carter, as quoted in The Watchtower magazine, (15 August 1981)
“I am strongly drawn to the simple life and am often oppressed by the feeling that I am engrossing an unnecessary amount of the labour of my fellow-men. I regard class differences as contrary to justice and, in the last resort, based on force. I also consider that plain living is good for everybody, physically and mentally.”
— Albert Einstein, in Mein Weltbild (1931)
“It seems safe to look forward to the time when the conception of attractive and repulsive forces, having served its purpose as a useful piece of scientific scaffolding, will be replaced by the deduction of the phenomena known as attraction and repulsion, from the general laws of motion.”
— Thomas Henry Huxley, The Advance of Science in the Last Half-Century (1889)
“Who overcomes by force, hath overcome but half his foe.”
