Chakravyuh ( UA ) is the story of the ongoing war between Naxalites and the state. Adil Khan (Arjun Rampal) and his wife, Rhea Menon (Esha Gupta), are police officers. They meet their close college friend, Kabir (Abhay Deol), after many years, at a college reunion function. Soon, Adil is posted to Nandighat to combat Naxalites there. He realises that Nandighat is almost ruled by Naxalites and that it is impossible to overpower them because of lack of information about their moves. Kabir, a police dropout, volunteers to join the Naxalite gang undercover so that he can leak information to Adil to help him overpower the gang. In the gang of Naxalites, the key persons are Govind Suryavanshi (Om Puri), Rajan (Manoj Bajpayee), Juhi (Anjali Patil) and Naga (Murali Sharma). Kabir, with some difficulty, manages to join them and gets on the job of spilling the beans about their moves, making it easy for Adil Khan to attack them
