Plot
When the country is ravaged by multiple natural disasters, only the elite Intelligence team knows that there something suspicious happening.[4] In a seemingly disconnected incident, a young orphan boy goes missing and it's only his night school teacher, Meenakshi Pirzada (Sonal Chauhan) and her boyfriend and reputed journalist, Chandrashekar (Prateik Babbar)[5] who are looking for him. Little did they know that their path would cross with that of Hassan (Jatin Goswami), their friend working in the intelligence core. And that both will lead to a reality so disastrous and monstrous that they know they are merely hours away from doom![6][7]
