While intercepting a van believed to be transporting illegal weapons, Vartika uncovers a shocking discovery - the vehicle is packed with girls being smuggled to Delhi for the marriage market or flesh trade.

Vartika decides to take on the case, despite the reservations of her boss, and returns to Delhi to investigate the matter with the help of Inspector Bhupendra Singh (Rajesh Tailang). The probe quickly expands into a full-blown mystery, with clues pointing to a sinister gang of traffickers led by the ruthless 'Badi Didi' (Huma Qureshi).
