The film starts when a Sikh couple alight from a bus at night on an isolated street. The woman is pregnant. They are followed by racist goons and are attacked. Later, "I" along with his father reach London. They go to the house of their son who is living along with his wife, son and teenage daughter. Later, they see the news and learn that the bodies of a Sikh couple were found and it was a suspected racist attack. They attend the last rites of the deceased couple. Later on, the goons attack an Indian store owner. These goons believe that England belongs to white people. The family has to taste racism when Kamal (sister in law) of "I" is cornered and humiliated. She returns home in shock. "I" learns of this and beats up three white racist goons. His brother doesn't lodge a police complaint out of concern for his families well being & safety & tells "I" to keep quiet for the safety of the family which "I" reluctantly agrees to. Later on, "I" is attacked by a group of Pakistani's (who's leader Aslam runs a boxing club) cause he suspects him of stealing his sisters necklace, he lets him go after his sister confirms she saved him from a white racist group who tried to attack and assault her, in the process leaving her necklace behind which "I" finds. "I" finds out after an outing with the sister that 1 of the attackers was the sister's brother. Later on "I" goes to the boxing club and challenges Aslam to a boxing match which results in a respectful draw between the 2. "I" reminds Aslam they are from the same culture, traditions and part of the world and even if they are from different countries their people should always stick together and fight against racism and equality and not side with the racists out of fear and just to lead a peaceful life. The fight & this advice from "I" leads to the 2 having respect for each other and eventually leads to them becoming close friends. Aslam after the powerful advice from "I" ultimately gains the courage to stand up to the racist group killing 1 of the members but this leads to his death by the gang. Later on, "I" fights Cain (the gang leader of the racist group), which "I" wins.
