Balajeet Roy (Sanjay Dutt) had all that he ever wanted in life a promising future, a beautiful wife and a
new life in a city that had always fascinated him Bangkok. Little did he realize that all this was just
too good to be true. That somebody was about to erase the next 14 years of his life.
It all started soon after he and Nisha (Celina Jaitley) had just about settled down in Bangkok. A little
after they had come to terms with its culture, pace of life and, of course, the trouble to find decent
Indian vegetarian food.
That day, Bala was painting the jetty of their beautiful villa. Nisha had just learnt that she was
pregnant. Unfortunately, the thrill of sharing the good news with her husband was short-lived. Because
she would never see him again.
Because somebody locked him up for 14 years in a dark and dingy room. For no apparent reason.
In those 14 years, Bala went from civilized human to savage animal. His only contact with the outside
word being the television set through which he learnt about his wife's death.
His only
preoccupation being watching television, obsessing over who's holding him captive and turning his
body into a fighting machine of sorts. So that he could settle scores with those responsible for his
situation.
And then, 14 years later, one fine day, he found himself bundled into a suitcase and left out in the
open. He had been set free.
Over the next 4 days, as Bala seeks out the truth behind his captivity through the streets and
waterways of Bangkok, he slowly realizes that his freedom was part of an even more sinister
design.
And, what role does Rohit Chopra (John Abraham) play? Who is Jenny (Lara Dutta) and does Joy
Fernandes (Mahesh Manjrekar) have any influence in Bala's life?
