Bas Ek Pal is the story of five people bound inextricably by an incident that changes their lives forever. Set in the metropolis of Mumbai, the film explores the complexities of modern urban relationships. Each character has a secret. And each uncovered secret alters the dynamics of every relationship. During one such night of partying, Anamika meets Nikhil at Anticlock pub. The chemistry between them is instant and obvious from the moment they meet. However she disappears into the night without even telling him her name.

Nikhil starts to visit the pub regularly hoping to meet her again. Many nights of waiting later, on a night when Nikhil has gone to Anticlock with Rahul and Steve, Anamika appears with her friends. An altercation takes place, leading to a scuffle. And in the scuffle a shot is fired. Time stands still as Nikhil realises that he is holding a gun in his hand, the gun from which the shot has just been fired. This moment would change all their lives. Irrevocably.
