Krrish 3 Plot Summary

What happens in Krrish 3 from start to finish, spoilers included, with a timeline of 15 key events. The opening is below; the full summary is a 3-minute read.

Spoilers ahead

Scientist Rohit Mehra lives in Mumbai with his son, Krishna “Krrish” Mehra (both portrayed by Hrithik Roshan). Married to Priya (Priyanka Chopra), a dedicated journalist working for Aaj Tak, their family appears ordinary at first glance. Rohit is focused on a groundbreaking experiment at a government research institute aimed at reviving dead tissues using solar energy but continually struggles to perfect his work due to the intense sunlight challenges.

One day, while Krishna is juggling multiple day jobs—often losing them due to his superhero alter-ego, Krrish—he overhears a dire news report about a malfunctioning airplane with stuck tires, which poses a significant threat to the passengers aboard. Without hesitation, he transforms into Krrish and heroically intervenes, saving the aircraft from imminent disaster.
