Both over the age of 60, Chandro Tomar and Prakashi Tomar inspire other women in India when they demonstrate their expert sharpshooting skills.

Both over the age of 60, Chandro Tomar (Bhumi Pednekar) and Prakashi Tomar (Taapsee Pannu) inspire other women in India when they demonstrate their expert sharpshooting skills. Rambir Tomar (Shaad Randhawa) is husband of Prakashi, Bhanwan Singh Tomar (Kuldeep Sareen) is Chandro's husband and Rattan Singh Tomar (Prakash Jha) is Rambir and Bhanwan's elder bro.

Prakashi met Chandro in 1958 when Prakashi wed into the Tomar family. From the beginning Chandro went out of her way to make Prakashi comfortable. Soon both have many kids and get bound by the duties of a woman in a deeply patriarchal society. Soon they become grandmothers and Shefali (Sara Arjun) is born. in 1985, Prakashi wants to open up a sewing shop, but Rattan objects. In anger Prakashi, supported by Chandro, sews clothes for the entire Tomar clan. 15 yrs pass. Prakashi sews a pant for Shefali as she grows up. When Rattan finds out, he destroys the sewing machine in rage.

Dr. Yashpal (Vineet Kumar Singh) is a family friend. he opens up a shooting range in the village as he feels there is a lot of shooting talent in the village. Rattan allows his grandsons to train, but not his grand-daughters. But the boys are not interested in shooting at card-boards. Chandro takes Shefali to the range for training, and suddenly Yashpal figures out that Chandro is a natural shooter herself. Yashpal agrees to train Shefali, but only is Chandro also trains with her. One day Chandro is almost caught by Rattan at the range. She escapes narrowly and Prakashi comes to know. Shefali encourages Prakashi to train with Chandro. Prakashi takes her daughter Seema for training as well as she turns out to be a natural as well. The 4 ladies start training together under Yashpal.

Yashpal encourages Chandro and Prakashi to participate in a senior's tournament so that the girls Shefali and Seema get courage to defy their grandfathers. Prakashi and Chandro play a prank to get the males to allow then to travel to Chandigarh. Prakashi says that the goddess told her in dream that Rambir will die unless she visits a temple. Rattan has no option but to allow this. In Chandigarh, the shooters laugh at Chandro and Prakashi who are in their village clothes. Yashraj still encourages them to compete and they win the tournament. Prakashi wins and Chandro is second.

At the national shooting competition for seniors, Tomar grand mothers meet Maharani Mahedra Kumari (Nikhat Khan) who is also a shooter. This time Chandro wins and Prakashi is second. They win consistently for the next 2 yrs. But when Shefali and Seema compete, they lose. So the Tomar grand mothers start training them with renewed vigor. Slowly they start winning as well. One evening Maharani invites the 4 ladies and Yashraj to her Alwar palace as she has been selected as the President of Rajasthan Shooting Association. Chandro and Prakashi keep making a fool of Sachin Tomar (Himanshu Sharma), who is also a grandson and was assigned by Rattan to keep an eye on Chandro and Prakashi as they wander out of the house.

Yashraj informs the grand mothers that Shefali and Seema have been selected for a national camp for which they need to go to Delhi for 45 days. The grand mothers now reveal the truth to Rattan, who spits on them and burns down Yashraj's training academy. Jai Singh (Pawan Chopra) is Rambir's son and an army officer. He challenges Rattan on his outdated views. He calls the panchayat, where Rattan is the sarpanch. During the public hearing Prakashi speaks up against male patriarchy in the village and stands up to both Rattan and her husband. when they step ahead to slap her, she threatens to shoot them down. Rambir & Bhanwan agree for Shefali and Seema to go to the national camp, but bound Chandro and Prakashi to the house.

Maharani Mahedra Kumari funds a properly pukka shooting range for Yashraj and he invites the entire Tomar family for its inauguration with Rattan as chief guest. Chandro and Prakashi participate in the competition in front of Rattan. Just then Chandro finds that Shefali didn't make it to nationals. Her concentration is lost, and she shoots badly. Prakashi is doing very well, but she doesn't want to win alone and so sacrifices her win by botching the last shot. When rattan celebrates their loss, his wife screams at him and his hypocrisy. A few months later Seema wins the competition in London. Rattan welcomes her back to his house. Seema dedicates the medal to Chandro and tells her mom all the wonderful things she saw in the outside world. Prakashi and Chandro feel as if they lived their lives.
