Plot
[edit]Sudama Pandey is a notorious criminal who runs a global operation of capturing women on camera. He operates out of London and is assisted by his two partners in crime.
Be it a honeymoon bedroom, changing rooms, or girls hostels, none of these places misses the third eye—the eye of a camera. First, they capture girls on film and blackmail them, then abuse them, both physically and mentally.
One girl who gets trapped by them is Sapna, an air hostess. She is a lovely girl who has dreams of making it big in her career. She found the love of her life through her fiancé, Arjun Singh. Sudama installs hidden cameras in her changing room and blackmails her into doing blue films in exchange for the hidden camera footage he took of her. Sudama does nasty things with her but gives her the film afterwards. She is brutally murdered by Sudama's gang not long after.
The murder is witnessed by Ammu, who tries to rescue Sapna, but her efforts are in vain. Ammu is traumatized by the events but soon finds herself in danger as Sudama begins plotting to kill her.
Meanwhile, Ammu's sister Aarti and her partner Rahul are searching for Sapna after her disappearance. Arjun, who turns out to be an A.C.P. in Mumbai, is also seeking his fiancé's whereabouts, investigating Sudama as he was the last person seen with her. His investigation leads him to London, where the only clue that could give him any answers turns out to be the sole witness, Ammu.
Unfortunately, Ammu herself has gone missing. He makes all possible attempts to find her but reaches a dead end. Without Ammu, he has nowhere else to turn. The race is on to find her and solve the case. But it won't be easy, because Arjun just doesn't have to fight criminals – he also has to fight technology.
