During a live interview on 'Channel Bangla,' masked gunmen led by Swadhin hijack the news station, threatening staff and causing chaos. Swadhin demands the presence of four individuals within an hour or threaten to destroy the station. They also detonate a bus outside to demonstrate their seriousness.

Swadhin chooses Saira Ali, a principled and fearless journalist, to mediate the hostage situation. She is equipped with a hidden camera pen, which Swadhin immediately detects and destroys. Saira agrees to participate in the dangerous mission to save the hostages.

Swadhin recounts his tragic past, starting with his struggles to find employment after being falsely led to believe he had a job. His efforts are thwarted by corruption and mistaken identity, setting the stage for his motivations of justice and revenge.

Swadhin is falsely accused of murdering a foreign businessman, JW Harris, and is brutally tortured. He is imprisoned in the 'Iron Cell' and learns that Nishat, his girlfriend, has committed suicide, and his father has been killed. His grief drives him to escape after killing guards.

Swadhin demands confessions from key officials live on air, releasing footage that implicates them in corruption and the murder cover-up. He aims to expose their involvement in crimes linked to the death of JW Harris.

Under pressure, officials admit to paid bribes involving the cover-up of Harris’s murder. It is revealed that Amjaad Mansur paid substantial bribes to conceal the truth, which leads to protests and fires outside the station.

Swadhin orders the release of hostages as public protests escalate. The corrupt officials are arrested, and Swadhin’s men blend in with the crowd to escape. Swadhin then surrenders peacefully, delivering a powerful speech about justice.

It is disclosed that Saira secretly collaborated with Swadhin from the beginning. Her past investigations into JW Harris’s case and her brother’s murder motivated her to join his cause and expose the truth on live television.

After Swadhin’s arrest, it’s revealed that the man believed to be Swadhin was an imposter, Mikhail, an international terrorist. The real Swadhin died saving Mikhail, who escaped and assumed his identity to seek revenge for his friend.

Mikhail’s gang robs Bangladesh’s gold reserve, leading to further chaos. Meanwhile, Armaan, the son of influential businessman Amjaad Mansur, kills his caretaker and escapes after overhearing plans to hand him over to the police.

In a pre-credit scene, Masud assassinates his manager for leaking their gold theft plan to Mikhail’s gang. He vows to recover his money and seek revenge on Mikhail, continuing the cycle of violence.
