Sukhi Tusshar Kapoor finds himself at the center of a high-stakes effort to repair his family’s reputation after a local politician, Sabharwal Ravi Kishan, engineers trouble for Baweja Ji over a 15 crore loan taken from investors. When the investors file a FIR, Baweja Ji is arrested along with his assistant Saira, and the public humiliation proves too much for Baweja Ji, who dies of a heart attack. Saira, who is Mintoo Hasan’s wife, ends up imprisoned, leaving Sukhi’s family with an urgent court order to repay the investors and restore Baweja’s name.
To juggle the mounting pressure, Sukhi teams up with his mother Mummyjee [Dolly Ahluwalia], Mintoo Hasan [Vinay Pathak], and Ballu [Ranvir Shorey], his trusted aide, to recover the money and outmaneuver Sabharwal and his allies. They hatch a series of bold schemes aimed at reclaiming the missing funds and exposing corruption at different levels of influence. The plan blends street-smart hustle with a calculated media angle, all focused on turning the tables on those who weaponize power for personal gain.
On a personal front, Sukhi tries to secure a better future for his son by pursuing school admission for Kabootar, a move that quickly becomes entangled in the same anxious web of favors, bribes, and threats that colors the entire mission. The school interview scene reveals a tense power play: a bribe slickly handled through a discreet payoff, followed by a sharp reversal when a hidden transmitter is discovered and the reality of Sukhi’s sting operation comes to light. The revelation is not just a breach of trust; it signals a new risk as Sabharwal’s circle closes in and Mintoo Hasan, ostensibly on the side of the police, is revealed to be a dupe who is playing both sides.
Meanwhile, Sabharwal’s own machinations unfold in parallel. He courts a dowry-heavy alliance with a richer politician named Kapoor, hoping to leverage the wedding to consolidate power and keep the 15 crores out of sight. The drama thickens as Sudhir Bagga, a fellow conspirator who has his own sense of justice, witnesses Sabharwal’s arrogance and cruelty, yet remains trapped in a system that favors the powerful. The narrative threads converge as Sukhi’s band begins to exploit Sabharwal’s own operations, turning his deeds against him while expanding their own network of leverage.
Manpreet [Vishakha Singh] becomes an indispensable ally in this intricate dance of deception and desire. Their budding relationship adds a human layer to the capers, giving Sukhi a reason to fight not only for money but for respect and belonging within a community that has long turned a blind eye to corruption. As their plan intensifies, Bagga’s loyalty becomes a pivotal moment: a quiet confession over drinks reveals how far he is willing to go to expose the rot that Sabharwal represents, even as he weighs the costs of crossing powerful enemies.
The duo’s most audacious move pits their sting operation against Sabharwal’s own world: a fake milk business. They bug Sabharwal’s offices and uncover a scheme to manufacture and sell adulterated products in Delhi, a revelation that could damage Sabharwal’s standing with Kapoor and jeopardize the wedding. To extract a decisive payoff, Sukhi’s team orchestrates a daring raid on Sabharwal’s factory, posing as inspectors who threaten to halt the operation unless a hefty payoff is delivered. Their infiltration nearly hits a snag when Sabharwal nearly uncovers their ruse, forcing a rapid retreat that leaves Sabharwal shaken and more determined to protect his own interests.
With the wedding deadline looming, Dolly steps into an even bigger scheme as Mrs Hansal, presenting a front of wealth and generosity that convinces the Kapoor family to trust her—at least for the moment. The plan heats up as Dolly travels to a luxurious hotel to sway Kapoor and his son Ankur, while Sukhi channels his efforts into a legitimate-sounding catering venture, Modern Caterers, designed to mop up the money and reposition their operation as a respectable business. Bagga’s presence, and his recognition of how Sukhi and Ballu treat their staff with dignity, becomes a turning point that earns him a deeper stake in the plan.
As the wedding day approaches, Sukhi and his team pull off a final, nerve-wracking caper. They move the 15 crores from a secure safe-house to the investors, orchestrating a flawless extraction that leaves Kapoor and others reeling. A call to Ankur reveals that the money has vanished, and Sabharwal’s world begins to crumble under the weight of his deceit. In a dramatic confrontation in front of the wedding party, Bagga’s inclusion in the plan is revealed, and Sabharwal’s pretensions collapse. His daughter, once a source of pride, publicly admonishes him, underscoring the moral consequences of his actions.
Ultimately, Sabharwal is imprisoned for seven years, a fitting consequence for a man who sought to corrupt every thread of the social fabric for personal gain. The operation is bittersweet: the money is returned to the investors, the scandal is exposed, and the people who acted with courage—Sukhi, his family, and their allies—begin the slow work of rebuilding trust in a system that had become riddled with greed. The film ends with a quiet sense of justice, a reminder that even in a city rife with manipulation, determined communities can still find a way to stand up for what is right.
