Ramika Sen...
"History tells us that powerful people come from powerful places..."
Are you telling me how to run my country? Of course not.
She was ruthless...
She was a dictator...
She was here to bring a change.
Until one day she came to know him....
Ramika - Is that?
- Yes mam. That is Rocky's KGF....
"History was wrong....."
Ramika - I need you to find Rocky and capture him no matter what.
"Powerful people.."
Ramika - This will be the END of the biggest criminal in the world.

"Places powerful..."

The prime minister's office - A year ago
The woman slammed her hands on the table making the other people present in the room shiver and tremble.
Her eyes were filled with rage, filled with anger. Angry at death for coming into her way.
? - What. Do. You. Mean. The. Ship. Sank.?
Her words held authority as her veins popped out. She couldn't believe that what she wanted didn't happen instead things turned out in his way.
She wanted to show him who was the real leader but instead got dragged into his trap again and again.
Ship captain - The ship sank along with the gold, madam prime minister.
Her eyes moved towards the telephone as she ran numerous calculations on her side. She just saw Rocky coming towards her during the election committee meeting but killed her opponent and left. Why not her? Where did she go wrong?
Raghavan - Madam. I think it's over. There's nothing we can do. The gold is gone and so is he.
Ramika - No....He won't die. I wouldn't lose...He shouldn't win.
. . . . .
Two years later - Present, two nights before Kali pooja.
Ramika - I want every detail on that ocean bed right now. Nobody should rest until his body's found.
The people inside her office exchanged looks as Raghavan sighed while signaling them to go along with her. The people bowed before leaving the room.
Raghavan - It's been two years of searching his body madam. I don't think he's-
Ramika - Have I ever left the country's affairs unfinished?
Raghavan - I beg your pardon, madam?
Ramika - Have I ever missed any of the meetings ?
Raghavan - N...No madam.
Ramika - Have the issues considering the public left overlooked?
Raghavan - No madam. You've been handling everything perfectly fine.
Ramika - Exactly. Do you know the reason why I'm tracking down Rocky?
Raghavan - Because....he pose a potential threat to the country.
Ramika - Wrong.
Raghavan frowned as Ramika finished signing the last document and handed it over to her worker before they left the two of them alone.
Ramika - Because he was the only obstacle that I haven't yet to overcome.
Raghavan - Madam...I don't quite follow.
Ramika - As a woman, I have met countless of obstacles to get to come to the place, to the title I stand for now. But that sturdy son of a bitch will overrule me if I don't finish him off.
Raghavan - But....Madam he died. There's no reason-
Ramika - He's Rocky. The one who turned nothing to something. He won't die that easi-
**Ring Ring**
Their conversation ended as Raghavan's phone rang. Ramika looked over to it and motioned him to take it. Raghavan excused himself and took the call.
Ramika frowned upon seeing Raghavan's face turning pale.
Ramika - What's the matter, Mr. Raghavan?
Thunder flashed outside as the rain poured heavily. Her eyes turned to the storm brewing, but her eyes paled at what he said.

Ramika smirked.
Ramika - Get ready. You and I are going to welcome his arrival.

MUSIC!!! MUSIC!!!
The drums banged onto each other as the place filled in the color red. Everyone's face showed content and happiness as they danced to the rhythm and enjoyed.
Kajal, Aadhya, Farmaan, Ravan, and the others smiled at the entrance just like everyone. The place was blooming with joy and happiness until the music stopped playing as the drums banged at each other in a song that screamed Pride.
There they are, Rocky wearing a bright Red suit while Yatharv matched with his father. He walked as he held Yatharv in one hand and with the other he touched the ground in front of the goddess of death as the sound of the nāgasvara boomed the grounds.
You gave me everything...more than I asked for....Except for my love...
His thoughts whispered. The place blasted as the banging of drums grew louder. Rocky held Yatharv close to him as he climbed the red stained stairs.
As he reached the top he looked at the people as they held their hands in the air. But soon frown took over him as Gasps were heard around everywhere as they all turned their gaze to the entrance.
Rocky' eyes softened up as the Fire scorched infront of the huge goddess statue as the person glided her feet onto the red brazen ground. He looked at the woman right before.
Kajal - Rocky! Are you okay?
Her voice, full of concern, broke through his trance. The sindoor had been accidentally fell onto his face by the pujari, as he quickly shielded Yatharv to keep the dust from his son's eyes.
Farmaan - Can't you do your job right?
His voice was sharp, laced with anger, as he snapped at the trembling priest. The crowd shot him disapproving glances, but Rocky, calm as ever, raised his hand, signaling for Farmaan to back off.
Rocky - What's happening over there?
He asked, his tone measured, though his eyes were fixed on the distant scene. Kajal raised her hands to wipe the powder off his face but he stopped and took the cloth to wipe it himself.
Aadhya gently took Yatharv from his arms, soothing the baby as if to put an end to the uncomfortable moment.
At the KGF main gate, Ravan frowned his brow. He stepped forward, his posture protective, though the woman was standing at the entrance remained calm and unwavering.
He knew that it was probably nothing but his gut told him otherwise.
Farmaan - Mallama!! She returned!
Ravan shot a glance towards Farmaan as he was unsure about the woman approaching them. Rocky nodded gently at Mallama as she walked up the stairs.
Fatimama smiled at her as she patted her shoulder.
Fatimama - Glad you were able to join us, mallama.
Mallama - Of course mam, I wouldn't miss anna's pooja for the world especially with our young prince this time.
Ravan went to Farmaan and whispered while Aadhya brought Young Yatharv to her and showed him to them.
Ravan - Was she someone you know?
Farmaan - Yeah, she was there before Reena and worked as her personal maid until Yatharv was born.
Ravan nodded as Farmaan approached them, but his eyes never left Mallama as if sensing something was wrong with her.
Why do I feel that she's not just a maid?
The pooja continued after a few minor obstacles such as Farmaan threatening the pujari if he did not continue it without making a mistake and Rocky calming them down however they all ended the moment Yatharv giggled at them.
The crowd behind them stood in reverence. This was not just a ritual. It was a declaration to the outer world. A promise that as long as Rocky stood, his bloodline stood, KGF would never fall.
And yet, despite the devotion in the air, an unwelcome presence lingered among them.
Standing in the crowd, her calculating gaze followed every movement. Unlike the others, she had no prayers to offer. She did not bow, did not close her eyes in reverence.
Her eyes was fixed at Rocky, and him alone.
