- The story starts in the city of Mumbai, where a motorbike gang starts breaking into banks and other public places and vanishes onto the Western Express Highway. Assistant Commissioner of Police Jai Dixit (Abhishek Bachchan), a no-nonsense cop, is called onto the case. Jai lives with Sweety (Rimi Sen) his wife who is very suspicious of him. Ali is a street bike racer who befriends Sweety after he saves her dog from an accident. He dreams of a family with her, but those dreams are crushed when he finds Sweety is wedded to Jai. Jai and his team suspect Ali (Uday Chopra) to be part of the biker robbery gang. Jai visits Ali and investigates him to figure out whether he is part of the gang or not.
Jai's theory is that the gang drives imported bikes and hence must be part of a biker club in the city. Jai asks Ali to get him a fast new bike. Jai arrests Ali after Ali takes him to a Muslim area gray market. But a robbery takes place while Ali is in Jai's custody and Jai is convinced that Ali is not part of the gang. The biker gang uses a container truck on the highway to hide inside it and escape all roadblocks. Now Jai wants Ali to help him catch the biker gang. All the robberies were on the western express highway and Jai is able to predict the location of their next heist. Kabir (John Abraham), the leader of the gang, and is super smart and knows how to fly under the police radar.
He sees Jai doing the recce of his next robbery location and knows that police is getting closer. Kabir strikes in the same location but at a different bank than what Jai was watching. Jai follows on Ali's bike, and even manages to get one shot at Kabir and injure another gang member Rahul (Aarav Chowdhary). Rahul is rescued by Kabir and their get away on their NO2 spiked bikes. But Jai gets their loot and Rahul's bike for analysis.
The gang members want Kabir to take action against Jai. Kabir eventually calls and taunts Dixit, claiming that Dixit can't catch him even if he is right in front of him. Kabir wants Jai to leave the case if Jai cant stop him despite knowing the time and place of the next robbery. Despite elaborate planning Jai fails to stop Kabir and his gang from making away with the loot, but he manages to shoot down one gang member Rohit. Through Rohit Jai figures that the gang works at a local pizza parlor. Jai publicly beats Ali for selling him out and breaks his alliance with him. Jai resigns from the force.
Kabir then lures Ali into his gang as a substitute for Rohit (Rohit Chopra), the gang member who was killed by Dixit. Ali falls in love with Sheena (Esha Deol), another gang member. The gang later goes to Goa to perform one last big heist before disbanding forever. Kabir sets his eyes on the largest casino in all of India. Kabir and his gang swiftly loot the casino on New Year's Eve, but they soon realize that Dixit has led them right into a trap. It is revealed that Ali was working for Dixit the whole time. Kabir manages to escape from Jai at the casino with his mates.
Kabir goes back to the gang's truck where Ali has kept Sheena bound and gagged. Kabir then viciously beats up Ali for his betrayal, but Ali is saved by Dixit's timely arrival at the scene. The gang flees, except for Sheena, while Dixit and Ali give chase to Kabir. They kill all the other gang members except Kabir, who tries to escape on his bike. He is cornered by Dixit and Ali with nowhere to go. Kabir decides to take his own life rather than let Dixit arrest him, and he rides his bike over the edge of a cliff into the water to his death. The film ends with Dixit and Ali arguing with each other, albeit in a friendly way.
