Plot
Retired judge Tyagi (Anupam Kher) is living a post-retirement life with his family in Ranchi. One day after the marriage of his daughter, two high profile doctors, Dr. Ajay (Murli Sharma) and Dr. Reena (Deepshikha) go missing. The investigating officer of this case, inspector Sharma, (Kumud Mishra) is unable to find any clue . With this ongoing investigation, another rich hotelier, Pankaj Singh, (Rajesh Sharma) also goes missing while he was returning from Kolkata. As Sharma is unable to solve the case and due to excessive pressure from the politicians and media ,these cases are handed over to crime branch officer Rathi (Esha Gupta). Two more people go missing, Dilawar who works for MP Rawat (Zakir Hussain) and a mechanic Afzal. On further investigation, the police discovers that all the missing persons are linked together. Afzal had planted a bomb in a vegetable market on the instructions of dilabar. The money had been given by Pankaj Singh on the charity front. Abdul, who had been an eye witness, was alive and minority party leader made an issue. As it was difficult to stop him from revealing the truth, Dr Ajay and Dr Reena who were treating Abdul were bribed so that Abdul can be silenced in a such a way that it looked natural. In Pankaj Singh's hotel, a honeymoon couple's MMS was leaked to humiliate his family as he was the son of that Muslim leader. This ultimately leads to the death of his daughter-in-law. MP Rawat was behind all of these. Rathi is ordered to keep an eye on both rawat and justice tyagi as all of them were given bail by him and he might be under threat from the actual culprit as he might be the next on the list. Next Rawat goes missing and it is revealed that Sharma was helping in kidnapping of all these people. Actual Mastermind was revealed to be Justice Tyagi. He says that he has to give them bail as no evidences were found against them but he knew all of them were wrong-doers. He also says that he didn't kill any one , he just wanted their confession. Rathi said that he knew that they were behind these from some clues. While Tyagi and Sharma were leaving after handing over the confession videos of criminals, Rathi killed those and arrests Rawat who later confess about his crime acts. The media said that dead bodies of these people were found along with video clippings of their confessions while police said that investigation is still on.

Reception
The basic story line is borrowed from Agatha Christie's book 'And then there were none'. Someone who punishes people for their crimes committed in their past is the tenet of the book which is copied by many movies over the years. 'Gumnam' was another Hindi movie with its story heavily borrowed from 'And then there were none'.
Critical response
Devesh Sharma reviewing for Filmfare rates the film with 2.5/5 stars. He praised performance of Kher and felt that the chief flaw of the film was in the writing as characters were not shaped as per ambience of the film. He wrote, "Vigilante justice films have to have the right mix of mayhem and violence. Director Ashok Nanda hasn’t been able to offer the right balance and as a result, the film fails to make the kind of impact it was aiming for..."[13] Shubhra Gupta of The Indian Express gave .5/5 star and felt the execution of film was 'ham-fisted' from opening to closing frame and audience were left reeling. She opined that Esha Gupta's portrayal as a tough crime branch officer took away the 'credibility of the film' whatever it had.[14] Archika Khurana of The Times of India gave the film 2.5/5 stars, praising the performance of Kher and Mishra, she felt that direction was 'sloppy and disjointed'. Khurana termed it as "half-hearted tale of justice" and wrote that "the film which started as a good vigilante thriller, soon reduced to an average affair."[15]
