What happens in Sarkar from start to finish, spoilers included, with a timeline of 12 key events. The opening is below; the full summary is a 2-minute read.
Spoilers ahead
Business magnate Deven Gandhi approaches Subhash Nagre ‘Sarkar’ [Amitabh Bachchan] for a real estate deal over a sprawling Dharavi slum in Mumbai. Sarkar counsels a fair approach: offer proper compensation and relocate the slum dwellers. Gandhi finds that option too costly and tries to twist the deal by offering a smaller commission, hoping Sarkar will back the relocation anyway. Sarkar refuses to be bought, and when Gandhi insists he’ll push ahead through other power centers, Sarkar makes it clear he will not let him proceed. Gandhi then reports back to his Dubai‑based boss, Vallya, and the two join forces with a rival opposition leader, Govind Deshpande, to topple Sarkar.
