Struggling to win over the hostile locals, Dusty meets the beautiful Ayesha, a doctor with a troubled past a woman symbolic of the beautiful but ravaged Kashmir.

While Dusty wages battle against various terrorist cells, Ayesha fights her own demons the grief of her lover abandoning her to join the jihad and the longing that still haunts her. Their paths cross as Dusty rescues Ayesha from the savage and demonic terrorist Kari Hanzala.
