Gurudev Hoysala

Inspector Gurudev Hoysala is transferred to Athani in Belagavi and tasked with locating SI Bhargav, who was investigating the sand mafia. He begins to set up his operations and assess the local power dynamics. The assignment marks the start of his crackdown in the region.

Believing Bhoomi and Ravi are an affectionate but socially mismatched couple, Hoysala arranges their marriage to ease tensions between castes. He does not yet realize Bhoomi is Daada's daughter, a fact that will complicate his plan. The arrangement is framed as a reconciliation gesture.

Hoysala learns that Bhoomi is the daughter of the powerful landlord Daada, a revelation that drastically changes the stakes of the marriage. He understands that his actions could entangle him with Daada and his network. This discovery shifts his approach toward Ravi and Bhoomi.

Ravi's friend Macche reveals that Ravi did not truly love Bhoomi, using her as a pawn to seek revenge against Daada for insults to their community. Hoysala reevaluates the couple's motives and the legitimacy of the arrangement. The revelation adds complexity to the ongoing investigation.

Bali, Daada's henchman, learns of Ravi and Bhoomi's situation from ASI Sampath. They find Ravi at a cattle fair, attempting to stay out of sight. A confrontation ensues, and Ravi manages to escape.

Hoysala finally locates Ravi and Bhoomi. Ravi reveals that his initial aim was to help Bhargav fetch evidence of Daada's involvement in the sand mafia, but he grew to love Bhoomi and abandoned his vendetta. The confession reframes the backstory of the couple.

Bali tries to finish Ravi, but Hoysala defeats him and arrests Bali, securing a key witness for the case. The arrest marks a turning point in the power struggle surrounding Daada and the sand mafia. The immediate threat to Ravi and Bhoomi is temporarily reduced.

City Commissioner Prakash arranges for Ravi and Bhoomi to be sent safely back to their hometown. This move is meant to shield them from Daada's retaliation while investigations continue. However, the broader conflict in the city persists.

Hoysala learns that Bali is behind Bhargav's death after harming his friend and Daada's son Nana, linking the murder to the wider mafia network. The police locate Bhargav's body and arrange a proper funeral. The development deepens the danger in the city.

Hoysala discovers that Ravi has died after Daada and Nana attacked him and Bhoomi following Prakash's departure. Bhoomi survives but is pregnant with Ravi's child, revealing a personal tragedy behind the violence. The revelation compounds the emotional stakes of the case.

Daada and Nana learn of Bhoomi's pregnancy and order Nana to attack the police station where she is kept. Reformed Sampath informs Hoysala of the impending move and helps coordinate defense. Hoysala arrives just in time to confront Nana.

Hoysala reaches the police station in time and shoots Nana in an encounter, eliminating a major threat to Bhoomi and Ravi's legacy. The victory feels bittersweet as the broader battle continues in the city. The incident cements Hoysala's resolve to bring Daada to justice.

Enraged by the killings, Daada frees Bali from prison, who begins targeting police officers loyal to Hoysala. The city descends into chaos as the populace demands justice for Ravi's death. Hoysala's attempts to restore order trigger a city-wide security predicament.

With public pressure mounting, an arrest warrant is issued against Daada, but City Commissioner Prakash is killed before the court hearing, allowing Daada to be released. The legal process is compromised by violence and political influence. The outcome fuels the plan for a dramatic final confrontation.

Hoysala orchestrates a plan to stage communal riots outside the court premises and confronts Daada in the ensuing chaos. He kills Daada and incapacitates Bali to deliver justice for Ravi's death. The city breathes a temporary, fragile peace as the case ends in tragedy.
