Chal Bhaag

This film starts with an ex-MLA shot dead by three unknown men likely belonging to a dangerous gangster group in Delhi. His death shocked the entire nation, and due to media's pressure, police are desperate to arrest the gunmen and close the case.

However, all police officers in the police station are corrupted and have connections with gangster groups. Being ordered to close the case within 24 hours, police chief Ramlal decides to find three scapegoats to blame for the MLA's shooting, and shoot them to make it like an encounter, leaving them no chance to clarify themselves. Ramlal and his men choose three detained criminals for minor crimes in the police station: Daler Singh, a kind-hearted and brave man who was arrested for fighting with some goons who were teasing a woman, Bunty, who was arrested for theft, and Munna Supari, a junior member of Usmaan's gang, who was arrested for harassing police when drunk.

Police drive the three chosen scapegoats in a midnight to a remote forest, preparing to shoot them there. However, before shooting, Ramlal's gun gets stuck, and he then accidentally shoots someone in a distance. To everyone's shock, the shot one is Usmaan, a famous don who has long bribed and been sheltered by him. The three scapegoats escape during the chaos.

Fearful of vengeance by Usmaan's brother Mannul, Ramlal tells him that the three shot Usmaan. Mannul orders his men and police to find the three "murderers", alive or dead. The three are now on the run from both cops and Mannul's men.

They visit Kajri's place for shelter, a club dancer who is Munna's friend and who also happens to be the girl Daler was always in love with. After learning their story, Kajri decides to help them. She drives them to the train station and asks them to catch the earliest train to Mumbai and never come back to Delhi. However, Kajri's boss Tata Singh betrayed them after knowing the three are wanted by Mannul with Rs 7.5 million. Tata tells Mannul the three's whereabouts.

When waiting for the train, Bunty accidentally finds there's a sim-card and a micro-camera in a necklace he stole from Usmaan's man in the police station. Curious about why the sim-card, he installs it in his own phone. As soon as he installs it, Intelligence Bureau is informed that the sim-card is activated. It is revealed that the IB officers planted the sim-card and the camera in the necklace to locate Usmaan's men and collect evidence against them.

Mannul and Ramlal's men arrive at the train station before the three board the train, and chase them. But before they get them, IB agents, who have more power than Ramlal's police station, arrive and arrest the three. In the IB, they submitted the camera containing evidence against Usmaan, Mannul, and Ramlal's connection with them, having them all arrested. The three are therefore released for their finding.
