sticky.At this moment Digamber needs the help of a man with a strange name...Mumbai xPress (Kamal Haasan). Well, that is his working name. His original name is Avinash and he is a motorcycle stunt artist in a touring mela. He no more wanted to flirt with crime. He wanted to be law abiding. Unfortunately the only law he could abide by, was Murphy's Law. "If something can go wrong...it will" and with Avinash Oh! Boy! Does it go wrong!
