Arjun Sarkaar, an SP in HIT at Visakhapatnam, gets assigned to a high priority case for the HIT in Jammu and Kashmir to catch a group of serial killers responsible for the gruesome murders of several people.

The 3-minute trailer begins with Nani’s cop character, Arjun Sarkar, stating that there are only two ways a criminal should be allowed to live on this Earth either in a 10-foot cell or a 6-foot grave. We are soon shown that the third case revolves around the abduction of a 9-month-old baby and a grieving mother begging for it to be rescued. Arjun soon goes on a manhunt to rescue the baby, sawing heads and breaking bones along the way. He even references his career when a foe says, “You can’t survive here.” He hits back, “I’ve heard that since the beginning of my career.”
