YODHA is the story of a brave officer. The year is 2001. Arun Katyal (Sidharth Malhotra) is a part of the Yodha task force. He resides in Delhi with his wife Priyamvada (Raashii Khanna), secretary in the Ministry of Defence, and his ailing mother (Farida Patel). Arun’s father Surender Katyal…&nbsp(Ronit Roy) is no more. He died while fighting on the field. He started the Yodha task force and Arun wants to follow in his father’s footsteps. However, he is infamous for not following orders. He never got into trouble as all his operations have been successful. One day, he is on a flight while providing security to a nuclear scientist, Anuj Nair (S M Zaheer). The flight gets hijacked and is forcefully landed at Amritsar airport. The Yodha fighters reach the airport and give a smoke signal to Arun, indicating that he can try his luck and defeat the hijackers. He goes for it, hoping that the Yodha team will soon reach the aeroplane and nab the perpetrators. Due to bureaucratic hurdles, that never happens. Arun gets thrown out of the plane while fighting the hijackers. Anuj Nair is killed. An enquiry commission finds Arun guilty and it also recommends that the Yodha task force should be disbanded. This also results in a fight between Arun and Priyamvada as the latter’s testimony goes against the former. Both decide to separate. Arun is devastated. Five years later, Arun gets an opportunity to redeem himself. What happens next forms the rest of the film.
