He finds accommodation in the college hostel and stays with Anand and his friends. They enjoy their days in college and Anand and his friends don't care about their academics, but Azad is more of the studious kind and passes all exams with good marks. As the days go by, he falls in love with Ananya, Anand's cousin and she eventually reciprocates. One day, they both decide to go to Garuda Mall together and just when Ananya decides to disclose her love to Azad, he is killed in a bomb blast in front of the mall.

Anand and the rest of the gang, especially Ananya, are devastated after knowing about what happened and a case is filed in the police station. The Karnataka State Police proclaims that the incident was a suicide terrorist attack planned and executed by Azad and tries to close the investigation and Anand and his friends are monitored closely by the police. The police even arrests Nizar Ahmed, Abdu, Sayid Ali and Lazer, Anand's friends, on the context of them being Muslims. Knowing that Azad their friends were not terrorists, Anand and his friends do not accept the police explanation. They decide to put their engineering skills to use and design various gadgets that help them fight against the police in order to prove them wrong. They even organise protests in the name of Azad to honour him. Adv, Vishwanath Iyer, Anand's uncle helps them in their mission as well.

The police, however, refuse to accept that their claims about Azad and the others were false and continue to fight in court. Eventually, using the devices that they had designed, Anand and his friends manage to gather enough evidence to prove the police wrong, but as he is about to submit the evidence, he is attacked critically by a few goons sent by the lead officer investigating the case. In the end, Vishwanath and Anand submit the evidence in court and finally win the case, thereby proving Azad and the others innocent and delivering justice to Azad.
