Mumbai Meri Jaan

Rupali Joshi is a successful reporter who is preparing for her wedding in two months. Nikhil Agrawal is an environmentally conscious executive who rides the train to work and is expecting his first child. Suresh is a struggling computer tech who spends his days loafing at a local cafe and criticizing Muslims. Kadam and Patil are Mumbai police officers facing corruption and an approaching retirement.

Suresh's casual bigotry frames his day-to-day life as he vents anger at Muslims from a cafe. This mindset sits alongside Kadam and Patil patrolling the streets, showing a police force mired in routine and disillusionment.

In the second class compartment, Nikhil and Suresh are spared from a deadly blast when a bomb goes off in the first class. The explosion marks the turning point for both men: Nikhil becomes terrified of trains, while Suresh’s mind shifts toward revenge before it is redirected.

Nikhil is too afraid to ride trains again and is diagnosed with acute stress disorder. The fear fractures his routine and threatens his personal and professional plans as he tries to come to terms with what happened.

Suresh becomes fixated on punishing Muslims, a dangerous descent that is checked when Kadam and Patil intervene on patrol. They lecture him on communal harmony and steer him away from vigilantism.

A street vendor named Thomas is abused by Kadam and Patil as part of their abusive behavior. He responds by making fake bomb scares at malls to vent his frustration. After an elderly man suffers a heart attack during a mall evacuation, Thomas feels guilty and decides to stop.

Rupali rushes to cover the bombings and is devastated when she learns her fiancé died in the blasts. The newsroom pushes her to monetize her tragedy for ratings, complicating her personal loss.

After pursuing a Muslim man he suspects as a terrorist, Suresh is stopped by Patil who lectures him on communal harmony. Following this, Suresh befriends the man, signaling a turn toward understanding.

Nikhil's wife goes into labour, forcing him to take the train to the hospital. This moment forces Nikhil to confront trains once again and test his recovered resilience.

The city observes a two-minute moment of silence for those killed in the bombings. This pause becomes a unifying moment amid fear and grief as Mumbai processes the tragedy.

Patil retires from the police force, marking the end of his long career. Kadam forgives him for the corrupt actions, signaling reconciliation within the department amid the fallout.

Thomas returns to a small act of kindness by giving a rose to the elderly man whose heart attack he caused. The gesture closes a circle of guilt and foreshadows a cautious hope for closure.
