Ghayal Once Again

Ajay Mehra walks out of prison and resumes his life by balancing journalism with vigilantism. He takes a job as a reporter for an independent newspaper while secretly assisting the police on cases that powerful interests want buried. This uneasy double life sets the tone for his return to action.

A powerful media baron Rajguru drugs and assaults Renu, a reporter from the town. The crime is quickly buried and her innocent boyfriend is blamed, spreading fear through the community. Ajay intervenes by abducting Rajguru and extracting a DNA sample that leads to his arrest.

Ajay is hailed as a sensational, morally complicated hero by some, while the city wrestles with the consequences of reviving a reckoning against powerful interests. The victory is tempered by memories of the past and the anxiety that lingers in his mind. His psychiatrist girlfriend Dr. Rhea helps him suppress recurring fears that threaten his focus.

ACP Joe D'Souza retires from the force and becomes a reform-minded social activist, collaborating with Ajay on cases that implicate the powerful. They share information and pursue angles that official channels miss, providing Ajay with steady support. The partnership grounds Ajay as he continues his dual mission.

D'Souza is killed in a traffic accident in Panvel, shocking Ajay and those who trusted him. A blogger named Zoya later reveals video evidence showing the death was a shooting, not an accident, implicating Kabir Raj Bansal. The revelation widens the web of danger around the investigation.

Zoya Saigal stumbles onto the troubling truth and obtains the video that could prove foul play. She and her friends want to bring the evidence to the police, but an elder in Bansal's circle warns them away. The case starts to threaten the balance of power in the city.

Investigators discover that D'Souza had confronted Raj Bansal about illegal land grabs, and Kabir Bansal lashed out, shooting D'Souza in a fit of rage. The murder escalates fear and places Ajay squarely in the crosshairs of Bansal's empire. The city grows tense as the truth begins to surface.

Anushka and allies seek a path to safety for the children involved. She hands the video to Kriplani, a lawyer friend, hoping he can protect them, but Kriplani secretly returns the footage to Bansal, putting the kids in greater danger. This act pushes Rohan and others toward Ajay for protection.

Ajay learns that Anushka is Varsha's daughter, a secret kept by her grandfather to shield him from the truth after Varsha's death. This revelation binds Anushka to Ajay and deepens the stakes of protecting her. Kabir's escalating brutality makes the situation more volatile.

Kabir's violent acts strain the city as Bansal pushes for Ajay's arrest through political channels. The pursuit intensifies, culminating in a confrontation fueled by personal histories and power. Ajay fights to break through police lines to reach the Bansal mansion and rescue Anushka.

Ajay breaches the mansion, faces Kabir, and defeats him, testing his physical limits and his stubborn sense of justice. Bansal, moved by a rare moment of responsibility, apologizes to Ajay and Anushka before surrendering with his son. The fight seals a hard-won justice and shifts the balance of power.

Ajay and Anushka recover in the hospital, surrounded by Rhea and their friends who provide a steadying support network. The emotional wounds begin to heal as truth and accountability start to take hold. The city acknowledges the high cost of justice and the new equilibrium begins to form.

With the major threats addressed, Ajay continues to balance his roles as a reporter and protector. He remains wary of the cost of truth and power, but determined to fight for justice wherever it is needed. The film closes on a note of resilience and responsibility.

The final image shows Ajay moving forward, still blending journalism with vigilantism, aware that power can corrupt and truth must be defended. His circle of friends, including Rhea, stands with him as they navigate a world where justice requires relentless courage.
