The movie begins with the introduction to a powerful underworld Don, Lukka. He has a stake in all illegal activities like weapon smuggling, drugs, and land encroachment. Lukka's sidekicks include Salim Chikna, Takla , muscleman Babu Batla, and Munna Mobile.
Lukka ousts his erstwhile mentor Tandya Bhai to emerge as the number 1 don of Mumbai. After seeing Tandya rebel against Lukka's disloyalty, he captures Tandya's sister and lets Batla rape and kill her. Tandya is enraged by Lukka's actions and goes to kill him. However, he is surrounded by Lukka's men and is convinced by Lukka that he has no reason to live, following which Lukka himself kills Tandya.
The horrific act of Lukka was felt across the 'basti' where Shankar lived. A curfew is placed on the basti where Shankar meets Inspector Kaale, a corrupt inspector who helps Lukka in washing off his crimes in the eyes of the law. Inspector Kaale is always at loggerheads with the commissioner, who is an honest officer. The basti rallies against Lukka's thuggery but to no avail as the leader of the rally is killed by Lukka in broad daylight. When Inspector Kaale comes to investigate the matter, he argues with an angry Shankar, who tells the inspector to inform the goons that their end will come soon. Shankar later meets Lukka and they become sworn enemies.
Geeta, an aide of Mustafa gets to know about the open challenge that Shankar posed to Lukka. She brings Shankar and Mustafa together to plot against Lukka. Mustafa used to be the top don of Bombay until Lukka became powerful. Lukka ordered Batla to slice Mustafa's hands, which led to Mustafa dedicating his life to ending Lukka's reign. He informs Shankar it was Batla who killed Tandya's sister. This leads to Shankar chasing and beating up Batla. Fearing his life, Batla offers to testify against Lukka. But Lukka reaches the scene where Shankar cornered Batla. The commissioner arrests Lukka, Takla, and Batla. Lukka and Takla soon get bail at the behest of the minister. Secretly, Inspector Kaale lets Batla escape from lockup to start a new life away from Lukka. Unfortunately, once Batla was released, he encounters Lukka and his sidekicks. Angered at Batla's treachery, Lukka stabs and kills him.
Inspector Sujata Singh comes across some goons molesting a woman. While protecting the woman, she herself gets harassed by the goons. Fortunately, Arjun comes to the rescue of the inspector and the woman. Arjun is an alcoholic who has no will to live due to his loneliness. Years ago, he used to be a soldier in love with his girlfriend Karishma (Ramya Krishnan). Arjun was after the life of a weapons smuggler Thakur Vikraal 'Mahakaal' who escapes Arjun's attempts to capture him. In Arjun's first attempt, Vikraal manages to escape by air. Vikraal kills Karishma to terrorise Arjun. Realising this, Arjun chases Vikraal and shoots him. Eight years later, he realises Vikraal is still alive. Arjun chases Vikraal and captures him at gunpoint. There, he tells Arjun that eight years back while escaping from Arjun's hands, Vikraal found his beggar lookalike. Vikraal gave the beggar his clothes and Arjun had unknowingly killed the beggar. After hearing this, Arjun finally kills Vikraal. As a result, Arjun is let go from the military and he began seeking obsessive refuge in liquor.
In the present day, Shankar finds Arjun in this drunken state and asks him about his story. They become close friends, and Shankar takes Arjun to the hospital for an operation saving his life. Arjun owed his life to Shankar. Meanwhile, the minister finds Shankar's sister Lakshmi being molested by a few men. The minister saves Lakshmi from the men, but takes her straight to Lukka. Lukka starts harassing her but she manages to escape. He sends Munna Mobile behind her who finally kills Lakshmi. Shankar finds Lakshmi dead and catches a glimpse of Munna Mobile running away. He registers a case with Inspector Kaale, who promptly informs Lukka that Shankar is on the lookout for Munna Mobile now. While Inspector Kaale discusses Munna Mobile's safety with him, Shankar finds the two talking and starts beating up Munna Mobile. Inspector Kaale stops Shankar from thrashing Munna Mobile and locks him up. Shankar gets transferred to jail where Arjun promises Shankar he will help him take down Lukka. Arjun meets Mustafa, who regrets telling Shankar about Batla, since it led to Shankar's sister's death. They wait for Shankar's release before planning their next move.
In a completely separate comedic subplot, Manisha and her father arrive in Mumbai via train to find a suitable boy for Manisha's marriage. But Manisha only wishes to marry the famous actor Govinda. Coincidentally, she finds a coolie at the railway station who looks just like Govinda and also claims to be him. They wish to marry each other against his father's wish who believes the coolie is just a duplicate of Govinda. Later that night, Manisha and her father encounter the real Govinda getting out of his car. When Govinda realises it is the actress Manisha Koirala wanting to marry him, they both instantly fall in love, this time with Manisha's father's approval for marriage.
Shankar gets released later, still feeling the pain of his sister's horrific death. Geeta informs Shankar of Munna Mobile's whereabouts. Shankar reaches a construction site in Lokhandwala where Munna Mobile was overseeing the construction after he seized control of the building. Shankar kills Munna Mobile at the site, by throwing him off the 40-storey building, with Lukka hearing everything via Munna Mobile's mobile. Next, Shankar, Arjun, and Mustafa plan to destroy the huge stock of Lukka's weapons which he stored at his hotel. This was a huge blow to Lukka's fortunes. After destroying the weapons, Shankar targets Salim Chikna with a warning that he will be killed by noon the next day. A scared Salim Chikna rushes to Lukka and Inspector Kaale for protection.
