He's got a rare blood group and needs a bone marrow transplant. Since Sahil is in advance stage of cancer, transplantation needed to be done immediately... otherwise he'll die!! Shattered Veer and Naina's only hope to save their son is to find the bone marrow match of Sahil. Veer goes all out to find the match but fails.

Commissioner gives the case to arrest Balli to ruthless police officer Inspector Khan (Aditya Pancholi), who's expected to get Balli dead or alive!!
