Plot summary
An undercover operation led by Inspector Mahima Basor ends with the arrest of a local goon, Veer Singh 'Veeru'. At the press conference, Superintendent of Police Angrez Singh Randhawa announces the arrest and leaves out Mahima's part in it, a point Constable Saurabh, her beau, raises with her. Two Uncle Hong jackfruits then disappear from the garden of the MLA Munnalal Pateria in the town of Moba, and Mahima is given the case. Her unit is under pressure to recover the fruit before it ripens, and her subordinates, among them Saurabh's father, meet her with caste prejudice.

Can contain spoilers, watch the movie first.
- Sanya Malhotra, who plays Inspector Mahima Basor, first had a "macho" or masculine image in mind for the police officer, but after meeting real female police personnel decided the character could be feminine instead, wearing a nose pin and earrings and make up, kind and gentle rather than cursing profusely.
