Plot

A police constable, Venkatappa (Srinivasa Murthy) meets Bellary Bhagyalakshmi (Malashri), a fraud and tells her his daughter, Kiran Bedi's (Malashri) story. Kiran was a police officer in Bangalore and resembled Bellary. There is a crime nexus run by Bhoopathy (Ashish Vidyarthi), his partners Naga (Kote), Mobile Nachappa (Rangayana Raghu), D'Souza and Muni in Bangalore. Bhoopathy's son Vicky murders a young civil service student, Shweta. Bhoopathy hides Vicky in Bhadramma's (Telangana Shakuntala) house in Madurai, Tamil Nadu. Kiran finds Vicky and kills him and Bhadramma. Bhoopathy, in a fit of rage, manages to kill Kiran. Venkatappa now requests Bellary to become Kiran Bedi and finish Bhoopathy and his associates. Bellary accepts after listening to the story and getting money for it. Bellary targets the whole nexus of Bhoopathy and slowly starts taking them down. But soon Bellary's identity is revealed in the court. Full of remorse, she enters civil services and becomes a real police officer finishing Bhoopathy.

Critical reception

The film received mixed reviews.

Indiatimes said "It is a feast for Malashri fans and those who like action movies. It is a treat to watch her in a double role -- fighting rowdies, chasing cars, shooting underworld dons and helping good Samaritans for a crime-free society".[2] BharatStudent gave 2.5 of 5 stars and stated " While the first half goes about with punch dialogues and action sequences, the second half gets emotional but culminates to the mass track with the high energy dialogues and some good comedy".[3]
