The film introduces us to Aditya (Akshay Kumar), a mild-mannered college professor by day. By night, he transforms into "Gabbar"—a hooded vigilante who kidnaps and "disappears" corrupt government officials, dishonest contractors, and greedy cops. His modus operandi is theatrical: he puts them on a mock trial, gives them a chance to confess, and then ensures they face a brutal, final judgment.
