Synopsis:
In a forest village in [[India]], Kid lives with his mother Neela and is inspired by tales of [[Hanuman]] she teaches him. Baba Shakti, a ruthless spiritual guru in the nearby city of Yatana, sends Rana Singh, the corrupt [[police chief]], to force out the villagers and acquire their land. The village is massacred, but Neela is able to hide Kid before Rana kills her and sets her body on fire. Kid's futile attempts to save her leave his hands terribly burned and scarred.
Years later, Kid earns a living in Yatana as a monkey-masked fighter at Tiger's Temple, an underground boxing club, where he is incentivised to lose. Kid intends to exact revenge on Baba, now an influential political figure, and Rana, who frequents Kings, a luxury brothel run by Queenie Kapoor. Kid obtains a job in the kitchen, where he uses the alias "Bobby" from a [[bleach|cleaning product]] and befriends Alphonso, a gangster working for Queenie. Kid helps Alphonso win a large bet on a bout at Tiger's Temple in exchange for promotion to a waiter to access the VIP floor.
Kid buys a gun and trains a stray dog to carry it past security. Kid serves Rana [[cocaine]] spiked with powdered bleach in order to confront and shoot him in the bathroom. The assassination attempt is spoiled and Kid fights his way out of the building. Fleeing in Alphonso's supercharged [[auto rickshaw|tuk-tuk]], Kid crashes and gets arrested, but he escapes. The chase ends when Kid is shot by police, falling into a river. Kid is rescued by Alpha, the keeper of [[Ardhanarishvara]], a local temple whose [[Hijra (South Asia)|hijra]] community is being targeted by Baba's growing political movement.
Learning that he is now a wanted fugitive, Kid recovers at the temple. Alpha guides him through a [[Religion and drugs#Hinduism|hallucinogenic experience]] in which he tears open his chest and is able to confront the trauma of his mother's death. Now with a newfound purpose, Kid trains in combat with the hijra and begins to fight for the marginalized as well. When the hijra's sanctuary is threatened, Kid returns to fight at Tiger's Temple, placing a large bet on himself. He emerges victorious with enough money to save Alpha's temple. During [[Diwali]], Baba's candidate is elected and their nationalist party celebrates at Kings. Kid bleaches his monkey mask white and fights his way inside with improvised weapons, joined by Alpha and her warriors.
Queenie attempts to shoot Kid, but is killed by Sita, one of the exploited prostitutes and Kid's co-worker. Using Queenie's severed thumb to access the penthouse, Kid confronts Rana and beats him to death in a fistfight. He reaches Baba, who wounds him with blades hidden in his ''[[paduka]]s''. Kid kills Baba using the same blades against him. Having finally avenged his mother's death, Kid collapses from his injuries, reminiscing about Neela and his devotion to Hanuman.
