Maanav is a famous Bollywood action star whose real life turns chaotic during a film shoot in Haryana. After a freak accident links him to a young politician's death, he escapes to London, only to be hunted by the dead man's furious brother, Bhoora. The story plays out as a tense, fast-moving chase through streets, studios, and newsrooms, blending sharp action with dark comedy and satire about celebrity culture, media trials, and public anger, as a man used to scripted fights struggles to survive a messy, unscripted crisis.
