Plot summary
Anuradha Verma argues criminal cases in court and has yet to lose one, and she raises her daughter Sanaya alone. Sanaya is taken during a parent-child race at her school. The person who took her contacts Anuradha and sets one condition for the girl's return: she must defend a convicted felon. That felon is Niyaaz Shaikh, convicted of raping and killing a young woman named Sia, and his hearing is four days away. The kidnapper watches Anuradha to see that she does as told. Anuradha keeps the police and her friends away by claiming Sanaya is at her grandmother's house. Needing help, she turns to Yohan, a policeman friend suspended from the force for breaking the rules.
