Maharani Gitanjali (Ileana D'Cruz) is a princess to a royal family in Rajasthan. As every royal family has loads of gold to themselves, so does this royal family, but her ancestors did not hand it over to the government of the country even after the ancestral reign was over. In 1975, the then Prime Minister of India, Indira Gandhi declared the state of emergency in the country. Around the same time, Sanjeev (Priyanshu Chatterjee), an influential person in the Congress government, has been snubbed badly by Gitanjali. To seek revenge, Sanjeev asks army officer Rudra Pratap Singh (Denzil Smith) to confiscate all the gold in Gitanjali's possession and to put her behind bars. Rudra follows Sanjeev's instructions and imprisons Gitanjali after forcibly taking possession of the gold rightfully belonging to the government but still held by her.Rudra asks his trusted lieutenant, Seher Singh (Vidyut Jammwal), to transfer all the gold to Delhi safely to the government and for that, he gives Seher Singh a custom-made truck with a powerful safe in it, in which he keeps all the confiscated gold. As Rudra and Seher Singh are discussing, Sanjana (Esha Gupta), Gitanjali's trusted aide, is sent by her to eavesdrop their conversation and get a whiff of their plan. Gitanjali then plans an entire scheme and wants Sanjana to accompany Bhawani Singh (Ajay Devgn) in getting all the gold back and eventually release her from the jail.Gitanjali briefs Bhawani Singh, her trusted lieutenant, about the gold and how she needs it all back to look after the people in her village. The loyal Bhawani Singh promises to retrieve the gold and return the same to Gitanjali with whom he shares a romantic relationship. Bhawani was the first person to support Gitanjali, after the sudden death of her father, the King. Bhawani Singh with the support of Daliya (Emraan Hashmi) and Guruji (Sanjay Mishra), besides Sanjana, of course, chalk out an entire plan and seek out on a mission. The four follow the truck in which Seher Singh and his deputy, Somesh (Arjun Dwivedi), are carrying the gold to the Delhi. The group of four, at one point in the journey, takes control of the truck after throwing out Seher Singh and Somesh. It is revealed that Seher Singh is working on orders of Gitanjali and is also fucking her. They both rejoice that Bhawani has abducted the truck. Turns out that Seher was with Gitanjali ever since she insulted Sanjeev. He got a whiff of the Govt's plans in his battalion and arranged to work directly with Rudra so that he could be assigned the duty of transferring the loot to Delhi. Gitanjali's plan was to have Bhawani steal the loot from Seher, as if anything went wrong then it would be Bhawani that goes to jail. If not, then Gitanjali and Seher would leave the country with the gold and Bhawani would have to deal with the Govt.Seher convinces Rudra to release Gitanjali, as he reckons that Bhawani will try to contact Gitanjali and that's the only way to catch the culprits. But both Gitanjali and Seher abscond once she is released from prison. The job now is to open the strong safe, something at which Guruji is adept. Meanwhile, Seher Singh, boss Rudra Pratap Singh and other army and police officers are hot on the trail of Bhawani Singh and the truck. Bhawani takes shelter in a village and takes their help to melt the gold into Ignots. He then ditches the truck. At one point, the army officers seek the help of police officer Durjan (Sharad Kelkar) but Bhawani Singh and his team members outwit him too.But before Bhawani Singh can return the gold to Gitanjali Devi, a very shocking revelation is unveiled in front of him, that Gitanjali used him for her personal pleasure and motives. But Bhawani had anticipated the move (he had seen the evil streak in her before and was beware of her motives) and didn't bring the gold along with him. In the ensuing shootout Seher is killed and Gitanjali marooned in the desert. In the end it is shown that Bhawani had loaded the gold ingots onto different camels and set them off, by which they reached different villages of Gitanjali's kingdom.
