Satyameva Jayate 2018

In the sprawling metropolis of Mumbai, where corruption has become an entrenched norm, a police force of over 200,000 officers struggles to maintain order. However, when four unsuspecting inspectors are brutally burned alive, the entire department is plunged into chaos and terror. The media frenzy surrounding the heinous crimes demands answers, while the public remains divided in their reaction. Meanwhile, the killer, known only as Veer (John Abraham), a calculating vigilante with no qualms about his methods, leaves a trail of ashes at each crime scene, daring the police force to catch him.

The latest victim had accepted a staggering bribe of Rs 20 Lakhs to turn a blind eye to a reckless driver who had mowed down an innocent pedestrian. As fear grips the department, Commissioner Manish Choudhary turns to DCP Shivansh (Manoj Bajpayee), their best hope for bringing Veer to justice. Shivansh launches a meticulous investigation, with his wife Sarita (Amruta Khanvilkar) by his side.

In a shocking twist, Veer makes contact with Shivansh via a secure communication channel, revealing that he is targeting only those officers who have succumbed to corruption. Shivansh is torn between the need for justice and the danger posed by vigilantes like Veer. As he delves deeper into the case, Shivansh uncovers the dark underbelly of police brutality and corruption, which fuels Veer’s crusade.

The third officer on Veer’s list had taken a whopping Rs 50 Lakhs bribe to allow an illegal bar and restaurant to operate late at night. Using the locations where the murders took place (S.A.T.), Shivansh deciphered that Veer is trying to spell out “Satyamev Jayate,” a powerful message about truth and justice.

Veer’s path crosses with Shikha (Aisha Sharma), a passionate activist and veterinarian, when he takes an abandoned puppy to her. Although she initially suggests euthanasia as the most humane option for the pup, Veer’s compassion sparks a romance between them.

As Shivansh closes in on Veer’s next target, a corrupt officer named Bhosale (Rajesh Khera), living at Yari Road, he uncovers a disturbing scene of police brutality. Bhosale is torturing an innocent man to extract a false confession for the sake of career advancement. The brutal beating has left the victim in a state of utter despair.

As Veer (actor name) strides into the station, his presence is met with an air of authority, and he makes a beeline for the lockup where Bhosale’s brutal tactics are laid bare. With a merciless intensity, Veer unleashes a flurry of punches on Bhosale, leaving him charred and smoldering. The man in question remains resolute, refusing to yield under duress, his silence a testament to his unwavering dedication.

The truth begins to unravel as it becomes apparent that Veer is none other than the younger brother of Shivansh (actor name), but Shivansh remains oblivious to this familial connection, his trust in Veer unshakeable. A poignant flashback reveals the tumultuous past, where their father, Shiv (Chetan Pandit), an honest cop, was wrongfully arrested by the corrupt commissioner, a travesty that ultimately led to Shiv’s devastating self-immolation. This cataclysmic event left an indelible mark on Veer, whose burning desire for vengeance is fueled by a crusade against corruption.

As Veer’s campaign of justice continues, he learns through Shivansh that one of the cops he had previously dispatched has miraculously survived. With calculated precision, Veer infiltrates the hospital building, setting ablaze another corrupt cop. This time, however, Shivansh is mere steps away, and Veer skillfully feigns injury to mislead his brother.

Shivansh’s investigation leads him to corral the corrupt policemen into a secure compound, but Veer remains one step ahead, orchestrating a devastating inferno that reduces the structure to ashes. Undeterred, Shivansh presses on with his inquiry.

Veer, an accomplished painter, showcases his latest exhibition, which eerily features tortured portraits of the very cops he has eliminated. Shivansh’s suspicions are piqued, and he begins to suspect that Veer is the elusive cop killer. Veer counters by asserting that their father, Shiv, was an honest cop, whose reputation must be redeemed.

As tensions escalate, Shivansh confronts Veer, demanding surrender. But Veer evades capture, insisting he has one final corrupt cop to expose before vanishing into the shadows.

Shivansh receives a cryptic MMS from Veer, revealing that Shikha (actor name), the commissioner’s daughter, has been kidnapped. The truth behind her abduction is a tangled web of deceit and domestic violence, which ultimately drove her mother to despair and suicide. As Shivansh pieces together the puzzle, he realizes that even the commissioner himself is complicit in this web of corruption.

Veer orchestrates one final confrontation at the site where their father’s tragic immolation took place, summoning the commissioner and Shivansh to bear witness to the truth. With a heavy heart, the commissioner concedes that he had framed Shiv, a cop who neither accepted nor allowed bribes, out of personal vendetta.

With the Commissioner’s acceptance of his wrongdoing, Veer finally surrenders to Shivansh, bringing an end to his crusade against corruption.

As a stunning betrayal unfolds, the unsuspecting brothers find themselves caught in the crossfire as the corrupt commissioner, fueled by desperation and deceit, unleashes a hail of bullets with a chilling “shoot to kill” decree, targeting both brothers for their inconvenient truth-telling. In the midst of this chaos, Veer (actor name) and Shivansh are forced to confront the stark reality of their treacherous situation.

With his righteous fury blazing like a wildfire, Veer takes on the corrupt cops, defeating them with ease and exacting a brutal revenge. His singular focus is fixed on exacting a fitting punishment for the commissioner’s perfidiousness - he demands nothing less than a fiery reckoning at the hands of the man who has betrayed him so cruelly.

Shivansh, however, is driven by a more measured approach, determined to apprehend their mutual adversary rather than incinerate him. But Veer’s unyielding rage refuses to be assuaged, and in a desperate bid to stop his brother’s destructive impulses, Shivansh (actor name) takes aim with his gun, firing the shot that ultimately silences Veer’s fiery passion.

In a shocking aftermath, the commissioner’s scornful words cut deep, targeting not only Veer’s honor but also the memories of his father, who had instilled in him a sense of justice and integrity. As Veer’s life force ebbs away, he summons one final spark of energy to exact his terrible revenge on the commissioner - a punishment that ultimately proves fatal for both the corrupt official and the once-unstoppable hero, Veer.
