Ayan (Emran Hashmi) is a young, recently married salesman who gets a job peddling locally made drugs to pharmacies and doctors. Despite the fact that the Pakistani-manufactured pharmaceuticals he sells are much cheaper than those sold by Western competitors, no one will trust or buy products that lack major brand names. His wife encourages him to apply for a job with Lasta, a large multinational, and Ayan is hired on a trial basis. It's not long before his natural charm and knack for glad-handing make him into a minor star, and Lasta expands his responsibilities. However, one day he is devastated to see first-hand what the selling of baby formula really means in certain cases. Shocked, Ayan sets out to challenge the system and the powers that be.

Charu, tout juste diplômée, s'installe pour faire carrière à Mumbai où elle partage un appartement avec d'autres jeunes femmes originaires des quatre coins de l'Inde. Lorsqu'un ouvrier venu faire des travaux de peinture dans le salon s'effondre inconscient, elle prend la situation en charge, mais sa tâche est ardue car l'homme n'a aucun papier d'identité. Elle s'obstine cependant, parcourant la métropole, ses quartiers chics et ses bidonvilles, se sentant de plus en plus proche de ce migrant sans papier.
