With Ranveer Singh and Arjun Kapoor, he resurrects friends for life emotion in a usual manner. It starts from the 1971 Bangladesh Liberation War resulting in the separation of the region from Pakistan, which gave birth to an independent Bangladesh. The two young orphans Bikram and Bala were refugees then and they witnessed it all. They battled each and every day for their living and finally ventured into Kolkata (earlier known as Calcutta) to find a work space but ultimately become the coal bandits.
The Kolkatians swear over their indestructible friendship and tout them as the most powerful and fearless goons of the city. On the other hand, they fear none but Nandita (Priyanka Chopra), a cabaret dancer, they are in love with. Between all this romance, a cunning officer ACP Satyajeet Sarkar (Irrfan Khan) is plotting his net to trap Gundays and wants to end their world of black market. How their friendship survives through all this, is the tale the director narrates in this flick.
