Description: The film begins with Bunty Bhaiya, a gangster, being arrested in Ghaziabad. Meanwhile, in Delhi, Mohit Kumar is about to start his new role as a sub-inspector in the Crime Branch under Senior Inspector Hanumant Singh. He encounters Singh’s team, who are involved in bribery and collusion with a land mafia lord threatening a builder’s life.
Upon joining, Mohit inquires about Hanumant Singh, and Rathi, a team member, describes Singh as someone between a human and a god—afraid of God, yet someone humans fear.
As the story unfolds, Hanumant Singh visits a land mafia lord named Choudhary, posing as a landowner from Rajasthan. He kills Choudhary and his gang members, but two escape and hide in a house. Surrounded by the police, the incident catches the attention of a news crew led by Varsha Mathur from Aaj Tak. Hanumant poses as a cameraman, gains entry, and kills the two fugitives, later claiming they were wanted terrorists.
Hanumant then takes Mohit for a drive, questioning his background and how he joined the Crime Branch directly. Meanwhile, a threat is made against Hanumant’s family, forcing him to advise his wife to leave India immediately for safety.
In another development, Bunty Bhaiya is transferred to Delhi jail, where he is treated as a high-profile inmate. He befriends two terrorists from Lashkar-e-Haq. Hanumant attends a politician’s birthday party with Mohit, where he is instructed to encounter Ali that very night.
