Raj, struggling actor, and Priya, girl who was ditched by her boyfriend just before her wedding, are strangers to each other, until fate brings them together with a promise for them to make money. The money is the reward Raj and Priya hope to get for reuniting a lost child to his mother. The mother is Madam Sushmita, a high-profile woman who owns a casino and runs other illegal businesses. She has lost her 5-year-old son and offers huge reward money for anyone who finds and brings back her son.

Raj and Priya go to Madam Sushmita’s bungalow number 36 in China Town to reunite her lost son with her. But upon reaching her place at midnight, they find Madam Sushmita murdered. Shocked, Raj and Priya run away from the scene of crime. But in hurry they forget their suitcase there. They also leave behind their footprints. This evidence makes them prime suspects in the eyes of the police who comb the city to nab them. Raj and Priya become fugitives. Inspector Akshay takes charge of the case. As Akshay racks his brains to solve the murder mystery, the list of usual suspects increases. Case becomes more complicated than it appeared at first. Among the other suspects are Sonia and Vicky, a married couple. There is also a high society playboy Rocky who was spotted near bungalow on the night of murder.

Even the old butler Natwar is one of the suspects. Plot thickens as inspector Akshay investigates deeper into the case. Who is the killer? And what is the motive? Are Raj and Priya innocent? All these questions will be answered in what would apparently be a riveting climax of movie.
