Plot
editA masked perpetrator attacks an Indian convoy, containing a weapon, and tells the Indian Army that they will have to race-against-time to prevent the destruction of India. Captain Misha faces off against a masked attacker in Shanghai, where she impales him, but the attacker's wounds inexplicably heal instantly and he escapes. Misha reports the incident to Col. Azad, who instructs her to enlist court-martialed soldiers Firoz "Freddy" and Rakesh "Rocky" for the mission, but only Rocky only agrees to help.
Misha and Rocky arrive in London and meet Parminder Pam, an IT specialist assigned to assist them. In London, Azad gets shot by the masked perpetrator. The team infiltrates the London tube to retrieve the stolen package. Freddy arrives to help them fight the masked men. Pam unlocks the vault, revealing that the package is actually Captain Priya Dixit, Freddy's ex-girlfriend. Since the hard drives were at the risk of being hacked, the codes to Karan Kavach, a highly advanced defence system, were encrypted inside Priya's brain. The masked perpetrator and his army take Priya hostage and the perpetrator reveals himself as Kabir, a scientist and Freddy and Rocky's former friend.
In the past, Kabir intends to help the Indian Army with his latest invention: a cloning program where clones based on Freddy and Rocky's DNA could be programmed with orders and win wars without being killed. When Kabir reveals his intentions to conquer the world using this invention, Azad orders him to shut it down since it would go against ethics. Kabir switches sides and sells the invention to India's enemies. Priya reveals this information to Azad, where Freddy and Rocky are given orders to capture Kabir alive, but they end up killing Kabir and are court-martialed for not following orders, after which Freddy breaks up with Priya without any reasons.
In the present, Kabir reveals that he survived because the person, who died due to Rocky and Freddy, was actually his clone Eklavya. Eklavya's death left him vengeful as he loved the clone like a son. The masked men were actually Freddy and Rocky's clones. Kabir reveals that he has also cloned Azad and killed the real one. Kabir kidnaps Priya and leaves Freddy and Rocky to die, but they kill Kabir's henchmen and reveals to the team that Kabir plans to turn Pakistan and China against India by deactivating the Karan Kavach and launching airstrikes against the two countries, which would cause India's reputation to be globally tarnished.
Freddy, Rocky, Misha and Pam infiltrate Kabir's base, where Kabir decrypts the password from Priya's brain. Freddy and Rocky eventually face off against their own clones, who keep rejuvenating due to an internal power source. The duo kills the clones by luring them into a power grid, causing them to explode. Kabir launches the airstrikes before Freddy and Rocky kill him. Priya reveals that Eklavya is the password. The Karan Kavach is reactivated, averting the airstrike and a potential war.
In a post-credits scene, the team leaves the base, while Kabir survives, hinting at a sequel.

Prithviraj Sukumaran's evil act keeps you on the edge."[51]
Bollywood Hungama gave 2.5/5 stars and wrote "BMCM suffers due to a weak script and poor dialogues, however, it is a decent watch for the fans of Akshay Kumar, Tiger Shroff, and those who patronize action movies."[52] Pratikshya Mishra of The Quint gave 2/5 stars and wrote "Bade Miyan Chote Miyan doesn't, however, rely on portraying its heroes with the same ol’ hypermasculinity – these heroes like to have fun instead.[53]
