Plot

Rajdeep Singh Dhaliwal, aka Rocky Mental, is a national level boxing champion preparing for Commonwealth Games, which are to be held in Australia, along with his best friend/brother in arms, Preet. Though Rocky is only concentrated towards Commonwealth Games though one day, he gets himself in a brawl with Maninder Shergill, brother of a Punjab Cabinet Minister, when Rocky talks to Maninder's girl Ibadat which angers Maninder and later led to Rocky knocking down Maninder in one punch. With the passage of time, Rocky and Ibadat gets closer to each other and fall in love making Maninder jealous thus, and he plans a dangerous trap for Rocky, which involves Preet committing suicide & Ibadat filing a case against Rocky (due to a small scuffle between 2 Rocky punches Ibadat. Maninder supports Ibadat to file a case of assault which Maninder turns into a rape case after using his influence unknown to Ibadat). Meanwhile, broken due to Preet's suicide, an attempt to murder is made on Rocky by another athlete and Maninder's henchman. In the hospital, his coach informs Rocky of all the incidents & Rocky being imprisoned for rape. Meanwhile, things get tough between Maninder and Ibadat when Ibadat gets to know the truth, but Maninder stops her to take any step further in favour of Rocky. In jail, Maninder meets Rocky and laughs at him, making Rocky angry & breaking out of jail during a court hearing. He severely assaults Maninder's henchman and athlete, who tells Rocky the truth that Preet did not commit suicide but was murdered on Maninder's orders, and so Rocky kills the henchman and athlete in the same way his best friend died. When Rocky and Maninder meet face to face, Rocky knocks down Maninder's henchmen & later burns Maninder alive. To revenge his brother's death, Maninder's brother, the Minister, kidnaps Ibadat, but she is later freed when Rocky reaches on the spot, killing the Minister but shot by the minister's henchman. Unknown to Rocky's coach and Ibadat, Rocky is still alive living in another country.
