Plot

The story begins with two corrupt politicians hiring rival crime lords Lambu Aatta and Bulla to eliminate each other. Lambu Aatta kicks off the bloodshed by killing one of Bulla's lackeys, only for Bulla to retaliate by murdering Lambu Aatta's brother. Not to be outdone, Lambu Aatta escalates the depravity by raping and killing Bulla's sister. Bulla, predictably, kills Lambu Aatta, claiming the underworld crown.
