Plot

Karanveer 'Karan' Singh Dogra, who is now skilled in many aspects of survival, weaponry, and hand-to-hand combat, is assigned on a mission to eradicate black money, which has been siphoned to banks along with his gang. Karan, along with Inspector Bhavana Reddy and ACP Bakhtawar Khan, heads to Vicky Chaddha's house, where he meets his wife Maria. The next day, a bomb blast occurres where Vicky and Maria are saved, but their daughter Tara dies. However, Maria kills her husband and tells that she is the actually Vicky Chaddha. A cat and mouse game ensues, where Karan, Bhavana and Bakhtawar follow Vicky and defeats her army including Vicky's main henchman K.P. Though Vicky transferred the money, Karan reveals to Vicky that he had changed the history in which the money was scheduled, and that the money has actually been transferred to a replaced account, which will help the poor farmers in India. He also tells that this was planned from the first day itself. After the revelation, Bhavana shoots Vicky, thus completing their mission. Later, Karan receives a phone call from his superiors and is assigned for another mission.
