Storyline

Set in 1975 in the Chambal Valley, the film follows Rajju, who provides information that her father will give a large amount of gold and cash to a bride, leading Singh (also known as Dadda) to plan a raid. The STF led by Inspector Gujjar attacks them after Singh gets the loot, causing a split in the gang. Lakhan wants to surrender to the police, while Vakil wants to rebel. During their escape, they meet Thakur's wife Indumati and a girl named Kushi. Indumati has killed her father-in-law and is fleeing with Kushi. Her entire family is after her, and she begs Lakhan to help take the little girl to the hospital. On the way, Lakhan tells Indumati a story about a curse for killing innocent children in a room, which causes the gang to be killed one by one. They need to find the Golden Bird (a metaphor for a savior girl) to escape the curse. Kushi is the savior they are looking for. Indumati's son wants to kill his mother, but Lakhan reveals the truth that his grandfather was a bad man and was actually his biological father. In the final scene, as the girl is hospitalized, Lakhan, pursued by Gujjar, comes out from behind a tree and surrenders. The mission to save the Golden Bird is complete, but due to the curse, Lakhan is shot dead by Gujjar. While heading to the police station after killing Lakhan, Gujjar is shot dead by a constable he had earlier beaten and insulted.
