Bbuddah Hoga Terra Baap (2011) Timeline Explained – Every Event in Order

Kabir chooses Vijju because Karan's aggressive crackdown on Mumbai's mafia has already eliminated several of Kabir's men. Vijju is described as a legendary hitman with an impeccable track record but no criminal record, making him the perfect candidate to infiltrate and eliminate Karan without raising immediate suspicion. Kabir recognizes that direct confrontation would be too risky given Karan's tactical advantage.

Foreshadowing: Earlier, Kabir orders his henchman Anju to find the best assassin with no previous criminal record, specifically setting the criteria that make Vijju the ideal choice.

Vijju stages fake attacks on Karan to create a sense of danger and force Karan to increase his security measures. By making it appear that someone is targeting him, Vijju ensures Karan stays alert and surrounded by protection. This also allows Vijju to monitor Karan's movements while keeping the real assassin away, ultimately revealing himself as Karan's father when the actual threat arrives.

Foreshadowing: During surveillance, Vijju fires shots that only shatter the glass of Karan's jeep and plants a low-intensity explosive, deliberate actions that cause damage without serious harm.

Vijju is Karan's biological father. Years ago, Vijju was a gangster married to Kamini. When he was imprisoned for two years, he was caught with Kamini, which led to their separation. He left behind his wife Sita and their young son Karan. After serving his time, Vijju went into exile in Paris, never knowing his son had grown up to become an ACP. Kabir's plot to kill Karan is what brings Vijju back to Mumbai to protect his son.
