Sarkar 3

Gandhi Bajrangbali Singh is a sharp, shrewd business force who sets his sights on a vast Dharavi slum in Mumbai, nudging Subhash Nagre “Sarkar” toward a real estate deal that would reshape the neighborhood. The veteran crime lord counsels a calmer, more humane approach: offer fair compensation to relocate the residents and avoid upheaval. Yet Gandhi finds the price tag too steep and schemes to press Sarkar by dangling a smaller commission as leverage. Sarkar, steadfast in his own code, refuses to bend. When Gandhi insists on taking the project elsewhere, Sarkar makes it clear that he will not permit the plan to move forward.

Gandhi quickly relays the setback to his Dubai-based boss, Vallya [Jackie Shroff], and the two hatch a renewed plan to rally a rival force. They team up with Govind Deshpande [Manoj Bajpayee], a political operator who can amplify pressure, and together they set out to remove Sarkar from the equation once and for all.

Sarkar’s family is drawn into the conflict as his wife, Rukku Bai Devi [Rohini Hattangadi], pleads for a gentler path. She urges him to allow their grandson Shivaji Nagre “Chiku” [Amit Sadh] to step into the fold, hoping the boy’s hotheaded, impulsive nature might temper Sarkar’s long, calculating rule. Sarkar hesitates—the young man bears the same volatile energy as his late father, Vishnu Nagre—yet he ultimately relents and invites Chiku to join the moving pieces of power.

As soon as Chiku steps in, he clashes with Gokul Satam [Ronit Roy], Sarkar’s trusted right hand, and Raman Guru [Parag Tyagi], who act as a stubborn, loyal triad around Sarkar. It’s hinted that Annu Karkare [Yami Gautam], Chiku’s girlfriend, may be using him as a route to Sarkar because of a past grievance—Sarkar supposedly eliminated her father. The political maneuvering grows more tangled when Gandhi seeks Gokul’s aid, hinting that if Chiku fails, the boy might become Sarkar—an outcome Gandhi cannot accept.

Deshpande’s plans intensify as he and Gandhi pull the threads of mill-worker anger and hope to spark broad unrest aimed at undermining Sarkar’s influence. Chiku moves to strike first, displaying the classic “warpath” temperament that both attracts and unsettles Sarkar’s circle. Sarkar, meanwhile, probes the inner workings of his own camp to identify the traitors and the true hand behind the destabilization.

The tension erupts when Deshpande is hotly pursued and killed, and Sarkar is blamed for the killing’s ferocity. He recognizes the enemy’s cunning and resolve and understands that the perpetrator will stop at nothing. A dramatic turning point arrives when assassins open fire on Sarkar during the Ganpati Visarjan festival. The attack shatters the illusion of loyalty within Sarkar’s inner circle, and a crucial clue emerges: Chiku possesses a video showing Gandhi meeting Gokul, while Gokul himself accuses Chiku of orchestrating the crisis, carried by a complicated web of personal history and manipulation. Sarkar, feeling betrayed, expels Chiku from the fold, and the young man opts to join Gandhi’s side.

Vallya responds by orchestrating a bomb blast at the mill, a move that pushes the conflict into a new, more dangerous arena. Gokul reports that Chiku is behind the assault, but Chiku survives and Gokul becomes the target of a ruthless pursuit. In the ensuing vendetta, Gokul is killed in what appears to be Chiku’s hand, and Sarkar swears vengeance for the losses that have piled up around him.

Vallya travels to India to meet Sarkar and weighs in on the mess, arguing that Chiku is too inexperienced to rule and promising to help Sarkar if Chiku is removed. Sarkar discloses a startling truth: Chiku was secretly sent to infiltrate Gandhi’s ranks by Sarkar himself, a calculated ploy to test loyalties and shape the power balance. The revelation shifts the entire moral landscape as Annu discovers that Gandhi was the one who killed her father, not Sarkar, and she shoots Gandhi in response.

In hindsight, the rifts with Annu appear to be healing, and she is brought into confidence. It emerges that Gokul had actually turned to Gandhi and played a role in the mill agitation and the slum development scheme to sideline Chiku and push toward ultimately becoming Sarkar. The conspirators’ plans converge as Chiku moves to eliminate Raman Guru, followed by another gunshot that leaves Vallya dead. With the arch-enemies vanquished, Sarkar and Chiku share a quiet moment, sipping tea and trading lessons about palace politics as Sarkar guides the inexperienced heir through the delicate art of staying in power.
