Rudra: The Edge of Darkness is an investigative thriller involving murders. Ajay plays the role of a police officer, who returns to work to probe a 'triple murder.' 

The game has begun as the 'baap' aka Rudra has returned, says one of the characters, and that is proof of the reputation that he had achieved. The officerdoes not mind being 'cruel' as tries to get to the murderers with the use of photographs and other clues.
