Sameer Mehra (Emraan Hashmi), a business tycoon takes shelter at an old man's home in the mountains amidst a dangerous snow storm. He is introduced to Jagdish Acharya (Dhritiman Chatterjee), a retired judge, Paramjeet Singh Bhullar (Annu Kapoor), a renowned defence counsel, Anna Matthews (Rhea Chakraborty), a house help and one Hariya Jadhav (Raghubir Yadav). They are later joined by Lateef Zaidi (Amitabh Bachchan), a renowned public prosecutor who has a sharp wit and an eye for detail.
Lateef initiates a conversation with Sameer to test if he is the right subject for a practical game they play amongst themselves. Sameer introduces himself as a successful and impressive executive of an ad agency who achieved everything on his own since he was orphaned from the age of 15. When Sameer takes an opportunity , Lateef remarks to his friends that he's absolutely sure that Sameer is the right subject for their game, and as everyone values his opinion, they comply with this.
Everyone coerces Sameer to play the sport , and he agrees. Later, Joe Matthews (Siddhanth Kapoor), an ex-convict accused of murder, joins them. Jagdish tells Sameer that he had pronounced judgement in Joe's case as he was caught killing the one that sexually assaulted his sister, and now that he has served his sentence, they're all on good terms with him.
The game is basically a mock trial wherein they setup a court and argue about some famous cases. Sameer agrees to be their defendant as Anna has not prepared for a famous case Lateef had earlier asked her for. Jagdish tells Sameer his rights and tells him that he can meet his defence counsel, Bhullar, to debate his case before the court starts. once they both meet in private, Sameer tells Bhullar that he has committed no crime so his case won't substitute court, but Bhullar opposes this, saying that going with none criminal charge in the mock court is dangerous since the prosecutor would then have complete freedom to charge him with anything. Sameer rejects this concept and says that he would go without any charge.
As the court starts, Lateef is in a position to extract intimate details of Sameer's professional life, to which Sameer naively answers all questions honestly within the beginning, but Lateef is in a position to correctly point that he had an affair with his boss's wife. On further inquisition, he concludes that Sameer colluded together with his boss' wife to kill him and later advance to the position of the CEO. At now , the mock trial becomes real and therefore the judge notifies that charges are to be framed and the trial started. He then gives time to the defence to organize for the trial.
During this break, Sameer learns that Hariya may be a retired hangman and Joe is, in fact, Anna's brother. Scared, he tries to flee from the house, but Joe prevents that from happening. Sameer now realises he's completely trapped. because the trial starts, Lateef presents a video from Sameer's phone as evidence of his illicit relationship with Natasha (Krystle D'Souza), his late boss G.S. Oswal (Samir Soni)'s wife and their conspiracy to kill him. Bhullar and Lateef passionately argue within the court & finally a guilty verdict is pronounced & given capital punishment. Now everyone insist Sameer to travel upstairs with Hariya, presumably to be hanged to his death. Sameer mocks them saying that they're real criminals who hang people for their petty game. Lateef replies that entire trial has been recorded by CCTV, which either way, he would be punished during this court or a real court. Fearing dear life, Sameer pulls out a gun & threatens everyone at gunpoint, takes the DVR of the CCTV and runs out of the house with everyone else in pursuit. Sameer manages to destroy the DVR, but during a hasty move, accidentally falls off the cliff to his death, thus serving just deserts to his crime.
A few days later, Natasha visits their place, telling them that she is here to gather Sameer's phone which is her company's property. The film ends with everyone convincing Natasha to play their game.
