The main character in Chase is Sohail Ansari (Anuj Saxena), an ex-BSF Commando who is on the run. DIG Ranveer Tyagi (Rajesh Khattar) is interested in solving the murder of the State Industries Minister Vishwajeet Rana, in which Sohail is implicated and possesses crucial information. Inspector Siddharth (Sameer Kochhar), working closely with the DIG, is monitoring Sohail's actions. Sohail is pursued by Siddharth and the police, during which he is injured and captured. On the advice of Dr. AK Sehgal, (Denzil Smith), Sohail is sent under police protection to the Neurological Research Institute in Panchgani for observation and rehabilitation. Nupur Chauhan (Udita Goswami), a nurse assigned to Sohail, discovers he is not in a vegetative state but is pretending, and along the way falling for him and after understanding his cause she assists him in escaping from the police.
Other characters include Surabhee (Tareena Patel), a TV journalist and Sohail's love interest, and industrialist Anil Khanna (Aditya Raj Kapoor), who seeks government approval for his Rs 1000 crore Power Plant project.
