Plot

Sadhu Bhai is an international syndicate leader who conquered the underworld of the entire Southeast Asia, and no one dared to challenge him. Baadshah enters the underworld for his father Dhanraj. Sadhu's partner Crazy Robert captures Baadshah and Dhanraj. Baadshah defeats Robert's goons. However, he learns that both the Indian police led by ACP Aadi and IG Ramachandra and the Hong Kong police are out to catch him.

In Milan, Italy, Janaki is a social worker who lives with her uncle Pilli Gopi Krishna Simha and cousins Inky and Pinky. She meets Baadshah alias Rama Rao when he acts as if he is attempting suicide. Janaki introduces him to various people who attempted suicide but found hope for life through her inspiration. One such person is a poet named Dasu, who is originally a slacker. Rama Rao immediately discovers Dasu's true nature and buys him off to help him in making Janaki fall in love with him.

Janaki, Rama Rao, and Dasu meet 'Revenge' Nageswara Rao, a failed film director whose mass commercial films are always bombed by audiences and critics for various reasons like gore, violence, pornography, and other reasons. Janaki wants to make his mind change by making a film on social awareness, but Nageswara's staggering attitude makes him even more frustrated to make an action comedy film titled Kathi Netthuru. He is also thrashed by Janaki, Rama Rao, and Dasu for his attitude (Janaki slapped him for overlooking Rama Rao's talent and exaggerating about the influentials of the film industry and giving wrong answers about earlier films made by its directors and producers, Rama Rao slapped him for giving wrong answers again about the earlier films made by its directors and producers, and Dasu slapped him for frustrating Janaki.)

Meanwhile, Ramachandra leads a police funeral for DIG Balram. Aadi states that Baadshah killed Balram, which leads the police to believe that Baadshah is the culprit. So Aadi vows to kill him. Meanwhile, Baadshah fights off Sadhu's henchman Rakhi Rasool, who comes looking for him. Unfortunately, one of the allies of Baadshah gets killed by Robert when he refuses to give information about Baadshah.

Flashback: Dhanraj runs a casino for Sadhu and runs a group of casinos in Macau, where Sadhu's syndicate gets half of its entire income. Although Sadhu is the most potent underworld don in Southeast Asia along with his right-hand men Vikram and Rasul, he was never able to conquer Hong Kong due to Robert's brother, a drug lord Violent Victor and his son Ruthless Johnny's control. When Dhanraj attempts to transfer the money from the casino to Sadhu through Hong Kong, Johnny stops Dhanraj's henchmen and tries to steal the money by using the local cops. Baadshah then fends off Johnny's men. Sadhu asks Baadshah to recover his henchmen Antony, who was kidnapped by Victor.

Unknown to Sadhu, it was Baadshah who kidnapped Antony. Baadshah demands control over Macau in return, to which Sadhu. Baadshah uses this as an opportunity to attack Johnny's place, they recover several flood victim children (with whom Johnny planned to do illegal organ trafficking), and kill Johnny after he tells him that he kidnapped Antony. Baadshah then hands over Antony to Sadhu as if he had recovered him from Victor. Victor surrenders Hong Kong to Sadhu to seek his help in avenging his son's death. Sadhu accepts the offer when he finds out that Baadshah was behind Antony's kidnap and played a game with him to get Macau.

It is revealed that Baadshah's intent on entering the mafia world was to defeat Sadhu and conquer his empire with his uncle Ganesh. Sadhu sends his men to kill Baadshah, but Ganesh is killed instead. Baadshah kills Victor and his accomplices, and Sadhu joins forces with Robert. Meanwhile, Ramachandra finds out that Sadhu is shipping RDX from Hong Kong to India and sends a team headed by Balram and ACP Aadi to intercept the container. In Hong Kong, Balram and Aadi attack Sadhu's gang. However, Aadi betrays and brutally kills Balram, also revealing that he is the mole in the police department working with Sadhu.

The container is successfully transported to India. Aadi makes sure that Baadshah is framed for Balram's murder. Robert then kidnaps Dhanraj and captures Baadshah. Baadshah finds out and reveals to Ramachandra about Aadi's betrayal. Ramachandra tells Baadshah that Janaki is engaged to Aadi and that they will be married in a few weeks. Gopi agrees to help Baadshah and Janaki. Janaki, Baadshah, Gopi, Inky, Pinky, and Dasu travel to India.

Present: Meanwhile, Sadhu plans several bomb blasts in all major cities in India with the RDX on the day of the WSIS in Hyderabad. Baadshah enters Janaki's household by posing as wedding planner Rama Rao. Janaki's household is headed by her father Dr. Jaya Krishna Simha IPS, a strict and disciplined Commissioner of the IPS in Andhra Pradesh who expects all the men in the family to be disciplined police officers.

However, Padmanabha Simha is lazy and a good-for-nothing person who becomes an inspector due to Jaya's influence, Padmanabha Simha is also his brother-in-law. Rama Rao learns about this and sees his real side (he abuses Jaya as he always scolded and abused him for his mistakes). He uses him as bait by making a setup and exaggerating "The dream machine" and explaining some fake facts related to the dream machine. After waking up the following day, Padmanabha also sees a fake dream sequence designed by Rama Rao, his maternal uncle, and his allies who dress up like fictional characters like Chitti (disguised by Rama Rao's maternal uncle), Superman (portrayed by Rama Rao's ally (Master Bharath)), Batman (portrayed by Dasu), Krrish (portrayed by Rama Rao's maternal uncle's assistant (Thagubothu Ramesh)), and Rama Rao portrays Justice Chowdary (a character played by Sr. N. T. R.). They remind him of the atrocities of Jaya and arouse his anger against him. Aadi and his father arrive at Jaya's house for Aadi and Janaki's wedding. Rama Rao uses this as an opportunity to trap Aadi and reach Sadhu. When Rasool and Robert enter the city to carry out planned bomb blasts, Rama Rao goes with Padmanabha and kills Rasool. Padmanabha (as he is in his fake dream) takes credit for the murder, and the police confiscate the RDX. Rama Rao's mother finds out that her son is Baadshah and becomes disgusted, though she later finds out from Rama Rao and Ramachandra why he became Baadshah.

Flashback: Before Rama Rao entered the mafia, he, along with his adoptive brother Siddhu and his mother were living happily. Sadly, on the day when Rama Rao was to leave for the US for a software job, Siddhu gets killed in a bomb blast that Sadhu planted. Rama Rao applies for a position in the IPS but gets rejected by the whole department because Dhanraj was working under Sadhu, and no one with a criminal family history is allowed into the police department.

Ramachandra asks Rama Rao to go undercover as Baadshah and infiltrate the mafia to extract information about Sadhu, and in return, all criminal charges against Dhanraj will be dropped. Rama Rao joins the syndicate as Baadshah to avenge Siddhu's death.

Present: After learning this, Rama Rao's mother apologizes for not trusting him, and he reunites her with a reformed Dhanraj. Later at the Sangeet ceremony, Aadi spikes the juice with alcohol (actually meant for Padmanabha so that he can reveal Baadshah's identity), making everyone at the ceremony drunk. Jaya gets enraged and has a public dispute with Aadi and his father. Sadhu comes to Hyderabad and kills the police informer that notified the police of the RDX and Rasool's location.

Sadhu then makes Aadi kidnaps Ramachandra and captures Padmanabha by using Nageswara Rao and his crew members. Padmanabha Simha soon finds out that he has been used by Baadshah. Aadi and Sadhu then attempt to leave India from an airport base, but Baadshah intervenes. Ramchandar reveals that Baadshah aka Rama Rao has been appointed as the new ADGP and that he was hired when he recovered the RDX and proved his worth. Baadshah kills Sadhu and his goons, avenging Siddhu's death as well as Robert, and beats up and arrests Aadi and his father, thus ending Operation Baadshah. He then gets engaged to Janaki, and Jaya is happy that another police officer is becoming part of his household.
