Bazooka

The painting smuggled from abroad is spotted during a routine road checkpoint in Kochi. ACP Benjamin Joshua intervenes and transfers the artwork to an encrypted location to prevent its seizure by thieves. This early action seeds the central mystery that drives the rest of the film.

Months later, Sunny boards a bus bound for Bengaluru and befriends a quiet co-passenger named Aryan Achary. Aryan presents himself as an accountant, sparking suspicion and curiosity in Sunny. The chance encounter introduces a link to the larger plot looming over the painting.

Curiosity leads Sunny to Aryan's laptop, where he discovers that Aryan is not who he claims to be. The discovery unsettles Sunny and suggests a deeper conspiracy behind Aryan’s identity. A sense of danger tightens as the bus journey continues.

Aryan reveals himself as John, a former police forensic professional on sabbatical and Benjamin Joshua's childhood friend. He explains his role in tracking the painting and the gang’s game-driven pattern. The revelation ties Sunny directly to the police investigation.

Back in Kochi, a mysterious gang imitates a video game by robbing locations and leaving cryptic clues. John joins Benjamin's team to decipher the clues and stop the pattern from escalating. They realize the robberies are orchestrated like levels in a game.

The gang lures Benjamin's son with a Mario game set to distract him, testing the police's vigilance and the boy's safety. Benjamin warns his son, but the lure reinforces the gang's reach and cunning. John intensifies the investigation, recognizing a direct link to the game clues.

After torturing a gang member, the police obtain nothing tangible. John connects the suspect to the gaming clues and urges Benjamin's son to recall the game he kept. The boy's memory becomes a crucial missing link in the case.

With the boy's help, John and Benjamin navigate the game titles and crack the final level. They deduce that the smuggled painting is locked away in a high-profile customs office in Kochi. The revelation shifts the pursuit from clues to a physical lockup.

John devises a heavy-security electric lock to mask the painting, making it nearly impossible to access. The plan showcases his strategic thinking and commitment to protecting the artwork. The lock becomes the target for those who crave the painting’s treasure.

Sunny challenges John’s confidence in the lock's resilience and is allowed to try. After some initial hurdles, Sunny successfully hacks the lock, proving a single hacker can breach the system. This accomplishment alters the dynamic between the investigator and the hacker.

The team travels to Bengaluru, and Sunny parts ways with John to pursue his own plans. Later, news breaks that John Caesar, who aided the police, has been arrested in Kerala for the failed lock. The twist adds a new layer of intrigue to the investigation.

Sunny returns to Kochi as Benjamin fights in court to free John, who is being framed by a different man named John Caesar. The courtroom drama reveals a case of mistaken identity or a deeper conspiracy. The stakes rise as the truth threatens to upend the entire case.

Sunny spots his girlfriend Jovita in Kochi and follows her to a hideout. A tense confrontation ensues with Jovita’s companions, and the gang’s leader arrives on the scene. The confrontation uncovers new information about the mastermind’s identity.

Bazooka, who calls himself Mr. Mario, is revealed as the same man who posed as John on the bus. He explains how Benjamin angered him by locking up the painting, which hides a treasure. The revelation reframes the pursuit as Bazooka's personal vendetta rather than a simple robbery.

Bazooka boards a flight to Dubai with Benjamin and Sunny as his co-passengers. He challenges them to try and stop him after landing, hinting at a potential sequel. The ending leaves Bazooka at large and the painting within his reach, setting up future confrontations.
