Synopsis by Jason Buchanan

An average man becomes the pawn in a game of high-stakes politics after intercepting an illegal arms shipment, and taking the Rajdhani Express from Delhi to Mumbai in this socio-political thriller starring Indian tennis pro Leander Paes. Paes stars as Keshav, a Delhi aam aadmi with dreams of greatness. Tired of living in the shadow of his godfather, a notorious gun runner, Keshav steals a bag of arms and jumps the train to Mumbai without realizing he has been set up by his boss' daughter, who has reported him to the police. Meanwhile, the tyrannical Deputy Commissioner Yadav of ATS Mumbai vows to apprehend Keshav at any cost. As the journey gets under way, Keshav finds himself playing the role of a pariah among the passengers until brandishing a gun, and being labeled a terrorist during a situation that spins fast out of control. That leads D.C. Yadav to hatch his own scheme to settle a score with the Minister, and attempting to silence the passengers who have caught on to his game. Later, as the train races to Mumbai, Keshav hatches a daring plan to win back his freedom, and expose the villainous D.C. Yadav.
