James begins with establishing the reign of Fear in Mumbai, by a handful of people controlling the political power. One such family who have full control over the political system is Shanti Narayan.

The film then focuses on James (Mohit Ahlawat), a courageous young man arriving in Bombay with nothing but a shoulder bag.

He's come to stay with his childhood friend, Babloo and lands up a job as the head of bouncers at a popular nightclub.

Soon, James meets Nisha (Nisha Kothari) and gradually love blossoms between the two.

The story takes a twist when James finds himself at loggerheads with a drunken guy who takes a fancy to Nisha.

After beating him up, James find that he is the younger brother of Shanti Narayan.

So now James is hunted by the Narayan family, who are out to take revenge. Unfortunately, James's friend Babloo is killed in the process.

So what ensues is a high-tension drama as James fights for his life to overcome the evil forces in this typical Ram Gopal thriller.

Ram Gopal Verma has also managed to sign actress Riya Sen to do a special song which appears with the title credits.
