Stalin

Stalin Chiranjeevi is driven by a simple aim: to help others and make the world a better place. A former Major in the Indian Army, his path takes an abrupt turn after a rift with Lt. Col. Iqbal Kakar [Pradeep Ram Singh Rawat], which leads to a disciplinary transfer from the battlefield to the administrative division. His world centers on his mother and his sister Jhansi [Khushboo], who has grown apart from their mother since she married a Punjabi man.

Stalin lends a hand to a physically challenged girl named Sumati to help her complete her intermediate exams, and her subsequent suicide shakes him to the core. None of the people around her stepped in to help, and this failure becomes the catalyst for his ambitious, if flawed, humanitarian plan. He formulates a chain system, described as: you should help three people, who in turn must help three more, with the expectation that those who receive help will also demand that the benefitted pay it forward. The idea is to foster a widespread culture of giving, yet it quickly encounters real-world friction.

The ripple effect of the plan turns sour when Stalin confronts a wealthy boy who injured a beggar. That encounter sparks a reckless chain reaction: the rich boy hires goons to target Stalin. As Stalin disappears from the scene, the goons abduct Jhansi and her friend Chitra. Stalin re-emerges and strikes at one of the attackers, injuring a goon who happens to be the henchman of an MLA who is the son-in-law of Home Minister Muddu Krishnayya [Prakash Raj].

Krishnayya seizes this incident as a matter of prestige and vows to wipe Stalin out, even as tragedy strikes his own family. The Chief Minister steps in to mediate, but Krishnayya schemes to kill the CM and pin the murder on Stalin. In a tense confrontation, Stalin saves the injured Chief Minister, yet collapses under intense chest pain brought on by exertion. The doctors reveal a long-hidden wound: a bullet lodged in his chest, a remnant from the Kargil War that had already pushed him toward the administrative side.

As the truth comes to light, the CM returns to the hospital to visit Stalin. The enduring power of Stalin’s concept—the idea of reaching out by helping others—proves its resilience, thanks in part to a schoolgirl who benefited from the chain and, later, an auto driver who owes his life to it. The operation finally removes the bullet in a delicate procedure, and Muddu Krishnayya is arrested for his role in the turmoil. Stalin recognizes that his “help three people” principle has not only kept him alive but has quietly saved countless lives, prompting him to offer heartfelt thanks to everyone who kept the chain moving.
