Holiday 2014

Virat Bakshi, portrayed by Akshay Kumar, serves as a Captain in the Defense Intelligence Agency (D.I.A.) of the Indian Army. He takes a holiday back home to Mumbai, accompanied by fellow colleagues from his unit, including the senior officer, Major Pratap Panikar, played by Govinda.

Upon his return, his eager parents introduce him to Saiba Thapar, a character brought to life by Sonakshi Sinha, whom they hope will be his bride. However, Virat dismisses her, claiming she is too old-fashioned, timid, and lacks the flair he desires. Unbeknownst to him, Saiba leads a modern life as a professional boxer. After witnessing her brilliance in a boxing match, Virat’s perception shifts, and he seeks his family’s assistance in communicating his interest to Saiba’s family. Unfortunately, Saiba, feeling rejected, declines his proposal initially.

While attending her best friend’s wedding, where the bride chooses a seemingly unsuitable partner, Saiba reflects on her own choices. The friend explains the scarcity of intelligent and attractive men, prompting Saiba to reconsider Virat. She eventually proposes to him, and he eagerly accepts.

However, Virat’s life takes a drastic turn when he is caught in a tragic bombing incident while chasing a suspicious individual on a bus. After bravely capturing the would-be bomber, Ajmal Lateef, he realizes the threat is far greater than anticipated as he uncovers a plot for multiple attacks across Mumbai with the involvement of sleeper agents.

As the countdown to the attack begins, Virat learns that key Army personnel will be gathered for a wedding on the same day planned for the bombings. Executing a daring strategy, he orchestrates a ruse where he allows the terrorist to feign escape, all while trailing behind to thwart their nefarious plans. Despite a tense encounter, he manages to dispatch the attackers before they can detonate their explosives.

Meanwhile, the terrorist leader, whose brother was involved in the failed attack, seeks revenge by targeting the friends and families of those connected with the thwarted plot. In a race against time, Virat ingeniously disguises his sister, Preeti, as a potential victim to mislead the terrorists. With the help of his dog Rocky, he infiltrates the terrorist hideout, leading to an explosive confrontation that nearly costs him his sister’s life.

The stakes escalate further when the head of the sleeper cell targets Virat directly, resulting in the death of his army comrade. In a desperate maneuver, Virat plans a dangerous mission to take out the terrorist crew while being set up as the scapegoat in a larger conspiracy involving corrupt officials.

On a chaotic night at a port, Virat finds himself facing a bomb-laden trap meant to frame him. Demonstrating bravery and quick thinking, he manages to battle the lead terrorist, sustaining injuries but ultimately prevailing. The film culminates in a high-octane showdown on a ship filled with danger, with Virat struggling with both physical and moral dilemmas before he emerges victorious, ultimately taking down the leader of the sleeper cells and his corrupt patron, Joint Defense Secretary Mr. Alvin D’Souza.

In the end, Virat Bakshi is reunited with his team, returning to serve on the border where his dedication to his country shines through, affirming his commitment to duty and justice.
