Gopi's father, Raghuveer, is killed during a classified R&AW mission. His uncle Sathya, also a RAW agent, fakes their deaths and raises Gopi as Arjun Kumar. Arjun dreams of joining RAW but receives no response until his 175th application, where he mentions his father's name. He is recruited by "Trinetra," a secret wing of RAW. Despite Sathya's initial fears, Arjun joins and is briefed by Chief Damodar about Al-Mujahideen, a terrorist outfit led by the mysterious Rana. Arjun begins dating Sameera Rao, a Harvard psychology graduate. After bonding over their shared history of losing parents, Arjun reveals his true identity as Gopi to her.

However, Al-Mujahideen has infiltrated Trinetra and Arjun is unaware. He follows a terrorist named Hamza and obtains the code "1112," which Trinetra interprets as an attack scheduled for December 11. During his graduation, Arjun is designated "Agent 116," a top covert operative assisted by Nadia Qureshi and her technical lead, Shaam. At the ceremony, Arjun gifts Damodar a bottle of whiskey suggested by Sameera. Arjun soon realizes the code was "12 November" which is his graduation day. Trinetra founder's founder Acharya attends the ceremony, however, he is killed when his convoy is attacked. During the same time, Damodar dies also from the poisoned whiskey. Thus, Arjun is framed for the assassinations, and PMO issues a warrant on him. Sameera is killed in an Al-Mujahideen ambush, and Arjun escapes to Rajahmundry to find Sathya.

They deduce a mole exists within Trinetra. While Nadia and Shaam track him, Arjun discovers that Sameera's uncle was a handler. They confront him and he commits suicide. Arjun learns that Sameera's real name is Sameera Sheikh, an Al-Mujahideen agent sent to trap him. He flees to Chittagong, Bangladesh, where he meets colleague Leena Rajan. Together, they infiltrate an Al-Mujahideen headquarters. Arjun recovers training videos that reveal the terrorist leader Rana is his father, Raghuveer.

Sathya explains that 20 years ago, he discovered Raghuveer was a double agent. During a shootout, Raghuveer gets shot and falls into a river. Believing he is dead, Sathya goes into hiding with Gopi to protect him. However, Raghuveer survived and became Rana. In the present, Rana captures Sathya and leads Arjun to come to his base. Rana reveals he used Sameera to monitor Arjun and assassinated Trinetra's members to reclaim his son. He killed Sameera when she fell in love with Arjun and tried to protect him.

Rana prepares to flee with Sathya but Arjun reveals that Trinetra soldiers, who are secretly alerted by Nadia have arrived. During the final confrontation, Arjun remembers Damodar's advice to overcome his weaknesses. To save the mission and the nation, Arjun shoots and kills his father.

Later, Arjun identifies the mole within Trinetra: Shaam. Arjun had spotted a young Shaam in the terrorist training videos. Shaam was the one who poisoned the whiskey which killed Damodar and later also killed Sameera. Trinetra commandos execute Shaam. Though shaken, Arjun is encouraged by Nadia to remain in service. He reads a final, apologetic love letter from Sameera left in his locker.
