Plot
SP Diana Joseph successfully apprehends members of the Sikka Gang and seizes a substantial amount of cocaine valued at 1,000 crores. Amid her operation, she receives crucial intelligence from undercover officer Abbas Ali, alias Raunak, who has infiltrated the gang under the alias of Ashwathama, also known as Ashu. Raunak discloses important information about Ashu to Diana.
Meanwhile, Ashu, seeking assistance, reaches out to the corrupt NCB officer Devraj Subramaniam. Instructed by Devraj, another corrupt officer named Deep Singh adds Rohypnol to the drinks prepared for the police officers attending IG Jayant Malik’s farewell party. Diana, however, abstains from consuming the tainted drinks, while everyone else present becomes unconscious.
Taking advantage of the situation, Bholaa, Kadchi, and Diana embark on a night-long drive. They arrive at the Laalganj police station using a secret passage, where they aid the students and Yadav in their safe escape. Determined to eliminate any trace of the confiscated cocaine, Joseph sets it ablaze. As Ashu’s reinforced gang manages to breach the police station, Bholaa confronts and annihilates them using a powerful M134 Minigun.
