Plot:

House surgeon Kabir Rajdheer Singh of the Delhi Institute of Medical Sciences has a reputation as a bully because of his severe anger management issues. Following a fight, Kabir is told to apologize or leave, but he decides to stay when he sees Preeti Sikka, a new student.

The student body is informed by Kabir and his friends that Kabir is the only person who can claim Preeti. She is shy at first, but she grows used to his domineering demeanor and eventually feels the same way about him, leading to a close bond. After earning his MBBS, Kabir relocated to Mussoorie to pursue his post-graduation studies. Over the ensuing years, their relationship gets stronger despite being apart. Following her graduation, Preeti brings her traditional parents and Kabir to them. However, her father Harpal witnesses them sharing a kiss and expels Kabir.

Even after Kabir tries to explain their love, Harpal still opposes their relationship. Furious, Kabir threatens to break up with Preeti unless she makes a decision between her family and him in the next six hours. Later, when Preeti is unable to get to him in time, Kabir feels abandoned and gives himself a morphine injection, passing out for the next two days. When he comes to, Harpal has him beaten and taken into custody after he discovers that Preeti is being coerced into an arranged marriage and interrupts the wedding celebration. Following his release, Rajdheer, Kabir's father, shuns him from the family due to his mischievous behavior.

Kabir finds a rented apartment and works as a surgeon at a private hospital with the assistance of his friend Shiva. He takes drugs and alcohol excessively and names his new pet dog Preeti in an attempt to deal with his emotions, but none of these strategies work. In a matter of months, he transforms into a prosperous surgeon and a functional alcoholic, admired and dreaded by the medical staff. His friends are concerned about his self-destructive behavior and obsession.

On his day off, Kabir is called in to perform an emergency surgery while hungover, which he reluctantly accepts to do. He passes out during the process due to dehydration. His blood samples are taken by the suspicious hospital staff, who find traces of cocaine and alcohol in them. A complaint is made against him, and in an internal hearing, a shattered Kabir acknowledges his alcoholism and transgression of medical ethics. His medical license is subsequently suspended for five years, and he gets kicked out of his apartment. He finds out about his grandmother's passing the following morning; he and his father make up at the burial. Kabir decides to give up his bad habits as well.

A few days later, Kabir finds Preeti sitting in a park, looking pregnant but dejected. If she is unhappy in her marriage, he approaches her and offers to raise the child together. She is silent for a while before crying uncontrollably, berating him for dumping her and telling him to go. Shiva goes on to explain Kabir's self-destructive habits and obsession, which she was ignorant of. Startled, she admits that three days into their marriage, she ran away from her husband and has been supporting herself by working at a clinic. Filled with fury, particularly upon discovering his extramarital affairs, she had declined to get in touch with him. She discloses that the child is Kabir's and that her marriage was never fully consummated. After they get married and get back together with their families, Harpal apologizes to them and the families get along. At the end of the movie, we see Kabir and Preeti with their infant on a beach.
