A police officer gets embroiled in a deadly game with drug mafia, while searching for his long lost friend from London.
When London-based Sam Higgins goes missing in the Ladakh region of India, his friend, Dev Anand, travels there in order to locate him. He finds this region to be quite different from the rest of India, as a matter of fact, Indians are regarded with suspicion and distrust, while the majority of the population appears to be Spanish, Italians, and other foreign nationals. The region does have a Police Station, but they are of no help to Dev, on the contrary they suspect him of being a smuggler of illicit drugs and ammunition. Dev's inquiries lead to conclude that he must meet a mysterious man named "Policeman" who has taken over the region and is feared by everyone. He also finds out that this region is well-known for attracting foreigners as opium is grown in vast quantities. As Dev starts to delve into these details, quite unknown to him, he himself has become a target for the dreaded "Policeman", and may not even live long enough to find out what happened to Sam Higgins.—rAjOo ([email protected])
Charas (marijuana) is being forested in large quantities in north India. A young British botany student, Sam Higgins (Adam Bedi), is missing for 18 months after wandering these jungles. He was on an independent study of ayurvedic herbs. On the urge of his parents, a London based policeman of Indian descent, Dev Anand (Jimmy Shergill), is sent to locate him. Upon arrival in Delhi, he enlists a tour guide, Ashraf (Uday Chopra), to search the area. He does not know that Ashraf is an undercover policeman, sent by the British and Indian ministers that profit from the marijuana trade. Ashraf does not know that the dreaded drug lord they will encounter is his former police chief, Ranbhir Singh Rathore (Irrfan Khan). The area they enter is full of mistrust, foreigners reign and Indians are viewed as suspicious journalists and police. Everyone they meet is somehow involved in the mystery. This is based on a true story.
