Devi Lal Singh (Salman Khan) is a highly intelligent, adventurous,and typically fun-loving youth, who is always looking for an adventure or fun in life, i.e 'Kick'. Because of his daredevil attitude, he never stays at one job for long and has resigned from 32 companies. When Shaina first meets Devi, she is trying to help her friend Vidhi (Sumona Chakravarti) elope with her lover who turns out to be Devi's friend (Kavin Dave). Devi rescues them both, gets them married in a temple but also helps her mother to follow them and reach the temple.Shaina initially dislikes Devi because of his thrill seeking and daredevil attitude. Shaina calls up Ramavtaar Rathi (Sanjay Mishra) to arrest him for an eve teasing case but he sees Devi beating up goons. Devi insists that he be sent to prison.Shaina falls in love with Devi after learning that he is a good person after seeing a video of him thrashing the goons. Shaina goes to free Devi but his father comes and starts to beat Devi. Later it is revealed that Devi's father was acting. Later Shaina meets Devi's caring but easy going parents including his father Lal Singh (Mithun Chakraborty) and his mother (Archana Puran Singh). She tells Shaina good things about Devi and Shaina and Devi decide to get married. On Shaina's suggestion, Devi accepts a job in a chemical lab.. But he resigns in a few days after again suffering from the lack of Kick. On hearing this, Shaina scolds him but feels sorry. He breaks up with her and moves away after telling her that he is going to get another job in which he won't suffer from lack of kick. Shaina leaves for Poland, where her parents live, and does not hear about or get seen by Devi for a year.
Himanshu, who is a police inspector, comes to Poland to catch a thief. The robber, called 'Devil', targets all the rich people associated with Shiv Gajra (Nawazuddin Siddiqui), a corrupt businessman, and robs people for a kick.When Himanshu is unsuccessful in catching Devil, Devi contacts Himanshu and refers to him as "partner" and insults him by calling him a loser. His insulting word also becomes the clue about where his next robbery will be, which brings Himanshu to Poland.
Shaina spots Devi in Poland. He has come there for treatment after losing his memory in an accident. Shaina, who is a psychiatrist, offers to handle Devi's case and decides to take him home. It is now revealed that Devi is just acting about his memory loss and his real plan is to befriend and fool Himanshu and rob Shiv, who will be coming to Poland for a deal worth crores of rupees. Devi enters a charity function and robs Shiv, who was about to invest a huge amount of money in a foreign firm. During the robbery Himanshu and Shaina discover Devil's true identity. Devi escapes by jumping from a building and rides a bus. He is then chased by cops led by Himanshu. After a long chase, though many cops are killed and Devil gets cornered by Himanshu with few cops, he escapes by jumping off the bridge. Unfortunately the bus falls into the river, and the cash is destroyed in the process. Devi then celebrates his failure back in India. Himanshu spots him and warns him that if he tries to rob again he will be killed, but Devi challenges him by saying that he will rob a huge party fund worth ₹ 500 crore.
In a flashback, Devi's true intentions and good deeds are revealed by Devi's father. He tells Shaina that his son is committing robberies to help poor children who are suffering from diseases and need crores of rupees for treatment. Devi once saved a girl named Jhumki by arranging ₹20 lakhs through some means after getting a letter from her dead parents. When a doctor tells him that several such children are suffering from diseases, he decides to save them by performing robberies in order to get the money. Later, Devi (transforming himself as Devil) goes to steal the party funds, first he goes to find Shiv and his guards are waiting for him. After a long fight with Shiv and his gang, Devi kills Shiv. He hands over all the money to his father. Himanshu gets ready with many officers to catch and shoot Devi, but millions of kids block his way. It turns out that 14 November is Children's Day, and the children are going to pray to Devi and thank him for saving them. Himanshu realizes that all the robberies Devi did were actually for the kids. At the epilogue, it is revealed that Devi was working as a secret agent along with the home minister (uncle of Shiv Gajra) and thus called Himanshu as "partner" all this while. He now officially joins the police force and once again gets together with Shaina in the end with the devil song "Yaar Na Miley In Salman Khan With Jacqueline Fernandez".
