Parallely, Dev (Vivek Oberoi) and Ishika (Lara Dutta) with his group of friends set out for an adventure trip for the weekend. However, in a cruel twist of fate, they are diverted from going to the farmhouse they had planned to go to and find themselves being led towards one of India's biggest jungle for an unexpected ride. The two groups bond together, but the same night, the danger that lurks in the jungle comes alive. They realize that the jungle abounds with dangerous and blood-thirsty animals of prey. Thus begins a horrifying journey of fear, panic, trauma, torment and death. The only person who can come to their rescue is Kaali Pratap Singh (Ajay Devgn). Will he succeed in helping them escape the jungle with their lives intact? In this run for life the only escape is to escape the time of death – ‘KAAL’.

Factual Mistake
There is a sheet of paper on which the national park's rules are printed. One of the park officers states that those are in English on the front and in Hindi on the back. However, there are several other shots in which it is plain that the back of the sheets is blank.
Trivia:
The three tigers in the scene where they corner Vivek Oberoi and John Abraham against the jeep are the same tigers used in the epic movie Gladiator (2000).

Kajol was to act in the film as a comeback, alongside her husband. However, she couldn't accept due to other commitments.

Saif Ali Khan was offered the role of Dev Malhotra, but turned it down.

Priyanka Chopra was offered the role of Riya, but turned it down.
