Dhurandhar 2025 | Sara Arjun | Ranveer Singh | Akshaye Khanna | Arjun Rampal

On 30 December 1999, Minister of External Affairs Devavrat Kapoor and Director of the Intelligence Bureau (IB) Ajay Sanyal negotiate with terrorist Zahoor Mistry to release three terrorists, including his brother, and pay a ransom of US $10 million in exchange for the lives of airline passengers held captive in Kandahar. Chief of R&AW K. S. Bhullar rejects Sanyal's proposal to infiltrate terrorist networks in Pakistan, but after the 2001 Indian Parliament attack, Kapoor approves Sanyal's "Operation Dhurandhar". Sanyal deploys agent Hamza Ali Mazari to Pakistan via Afghanistan. Upon reaching Lyari, Karachi, Hamza meets Mohammed Aalam, a juice shop owner, moves in with him, and works as a waiter, learning about gangster Rehman Dakait and rival leaders. As a Baloch, Hamza can join only Rehman's gang which is led by Rehman and his second-in-command and first cousin Uzair Baloch. Hamza and Aalam learn a rival Pathan gang led by Rehman's estranged father, Babu Dakait, plans to kill Rehman's eldest son Naieem Baloch. The next day, Babu's men attack a wedding attended by Naieem and his younger brother Faizal; Hamza saves Faizal Baloch but Naieem is killed. At the hospital, Hamza meets Rehman and Uzair Baloch, who recruits him after noting his firearm expertise. Jameel Jamali of the Pakistan Awami Party (PAP) warns Uzair not to retaliate before the Lyari election. While embedded with the gang, Hamza learns of their illegal production of unlicensed firearms. On Hamza's advice, Rehman decides to avenge Naieem's murder. Hamza, Uzair, and the gang kill Babu's men; Rehman murders Babu by smashing his head with a weighing stone, declaring Baloch rule in Lyari. Rehman attends a PAP rally held by Jameel. Hamza meets Jameel's daughter Yalina Jamali at the event and later initiates a relationship with her. Rehman is introduced to Major Iqbal, an ISI official, by the Khanani brothers, businessmen who encourage Rehman to enter politics. Iqbal asks Rehman to supply weapons and ammunition. During dealings, Hamza watches Iqbal brutally torture an Indian spy and learns of his counterfeit-currency operation with the Khananis. Hamza relays this to Aalam, who informs Sanyal; the IB suspects Pakistan possesses Indian currency plates. While transporting weapons, Hamza discovers plans for a major attack on India and passes the intel to the IB.
