Plot
The story continues 4 years after the incidents of Boss: Born to Rule that took place in 2013. In 2017, Surya, a public figure, is now hated by the people due to the disappearance of their money (worth ₹35000 crores) kept in the Business bank headquarters, a bank built by Surya for his people. Surya's loved person, Chief Minister of Maharashtra Gopinath Shivalkar, who was previously mayor of Mumbai, was killed by an unknown person due to various enmities. Surya was forced to leave India due to repeated threats by the people and the police, where he dressed as a rock musician and sneaked into Dhaka, to look for Prince Shahnawaz Hussain, who had earlier promised to donate a huge sum for his company Surya Industries, but later discovers that he betrayed him and went to Bangkok.
