In Bangalore, police torture Jogi's accomplices to wrench out his location. The brutal interrogation hints that Jogi may have moved to Dubai, narrowing the hunt to one man. The scene exposes the toxic web of loyalties and grudges surrounding him.

After the accomplices are released, they meet Bhubaiyya and unleash a torrent of verbal abuse aimed at Jogi for his betrayal. The scene lays bare the fractured loyalties that sustain his criminal world. Bhubaiyya's anger foreshadows the danger Jogi will face from those who were betrayed.

In Mumbai, Jogi lives under a new identity, calling himself Mahadeva. He works as a servant in Vidya's house, hiding in plain sight. The quiet domestic life contrasts with the violence of his former world.

Vidya's marriage to an astrologer from Karnataka is arranged, introducing a man who seems to vaguely recognize Jogi. The recognition triggers uneasy memories of Jogi’s past and the life he left behind. The looming wedding pushes Jogi to evaluate his chances of a normal life.

After the death of his mother, Jogi continues to drift as a goon but begins to rethink his path. Personal humiliations by a doctor and by friends sharpen his realization that re-entering the crime world would offer no second chance. He silently resolves to leave the city behind.

The unsettling presence of Vidya's fiancé pushes Jogi toward departure from Mumbai. He decides to leave rather than risk being pulled back into crime. The decision marks a turning point, choosing absence over a dangerous return.

Jogi's fellow workers in Mumbai eliminate a gangster who wrecked their lives and secretly relocate to a coastal region to sail for Dubai. They plan a fresh start far from the city, where the coast might offer new opportunities. Jogi spots them on the beach and chooses to join their exodus.

The coastal plan is interrupted when the police corner the group and arrest Jogi, transporting him back to Bangalore for trial. The arrest upends his hopes for escape and sets the stage for the courtroom battle to come. The incident reorients his fate within the city’s volatile politics.

En route to the courtroom, Bhubaiyya dies in an accident, a devastating blow to Jogi. The death deepens his sense of betrayal and fuels the court's hostile mood. It also intensifies the courtroom atmosphere as many appear eager for his downfall.

In court, Vidya’s feelings begin to shift; she calls off her wedding and pleads for Jogi's release. A lawyer helps Vidya prove his innocence, and Jogi is freed from prison. This moment marks a dangerous return to the public eye.

Back on the streets, Jogi reassembles his former gang and resumes illicit activities. He navigates the city with renewed resolve, though signs of past wounds linger. The reappearance signals a second act in his bid for control.

An elder figure explains why Jogi’s exit triggered Naidu’s strategy and the syndicate’s revival, framing Jogi as a scapegoat. The elder tracks Jogi down in Mumbai, aided by the police chief who supports his return. The elder also reveals Appanna’s central role in the syndicate’s revival.

Jogi confronts the syndicate leaders and pursues Appanna, earning the people’s trust by solving their problems and adopting a new leadership role, Jogayya. The Chief Minister orders a crackdown and lists targets for encounters as violence spikes. The city braces for a political crisis and elections.

Appanna’s mother pleads for mercy to spare her son, and although Jogi longs to kill Appanna, he chooses mercy instead. He retaliates by targeting Naidu’s brothers with a police gun, driving Naidu to withdraw his support and plunging the government into a political crisis. Vidya’s father reveals Vidya’s love for Jogi, and a public pledge emerges to elect only those truly capable, inspired by Jogayya.
