Kaithi follows a recently freed prisoner — Dilli, while en route to meet his daughter for the first time in life. When a number of police officers are poisoned at a party following a drug bust, an inspector enlists Dilli’s help to drive the officers to hospital in a lorry, in exchange for seeing his daughter. In the journey, they face several criminals and must race against time to reach hospital and also save a police station which is about to come under siege.
