Loosely based on the Korean film, 'A Bittersweet Life' (Directed by Kim Ji-woon), Awarapan, is the story of a hit man, Shivam (Emraan Hashmi), who works for Malik (Ashutosh Rana). Before he leaves on a trip to London, Malik assigns Shivam with a seemingly simple task, which unbeknown to him, would change the course of his life! The task is to keep an eye on Malik's mistress, Reema (Mrinalini) a young Pakistani girl, whom Malik had "acquired" from the flesh market. Malik suspects his mistress of adultery and strict instructions are issued to Shivam to eliminate her, if she indeed was cheating on him.

The instant Shivam sets his eyes on Reema, she reminds him of his lost, lady love [Shriya Saran]. Shivam soon realizes that Malik's fears were not unfounded as; Reema indeed is having an affair with Bilal (Rehan) and also is in the throes eloping with him.
 
Realizing this, Malik orders Shivam to eliminate her. But Shivam's past returns to haunt him and he sets them free. The resulting consequences lead to forming the rest of the plot.
