Rashmi Rocket Plot & Ending Explained

The film begins with two male cops breaking into a girls' hostel and pulling Rashmi (Taapsee Pannu) out of her room to arrest her because they had received a report that a guy is residing in the women's hostel. Before that, one of them mocks her and adds that she is a con with a female voice.

Rashmi has always run at a blazing rate; her father was always encouraging of her tomboyish tendencies and her racing. Her father was killed in the Bhuj earthquake when she was competing in her school competition. Her fleet and agility continue to grow, but following the pain of losing her father during a race, she decides to stop competing in sprinting competitions.

She rescues an army guy from a landmine while working as a tour guide for a group of army men in her hometown. Gagan Thakur (Priyanshu Painyuli), an army soldier, discovers her extraordinary speed and persuades her and her mother Bhanuben (Supriya Pathak), a strong-willed community lady, to participate in competitive sports. Her mother and two brothers are supportive and helpful.

Rashmi astounds the selectors by winning every major race in the country. Despite the fact that she is not in training, she gets chosen for the national squad based on her natural skill. Niharika Chopra, the selector's daughter, teases her about being masculine. Niharka continues to torment her like a regular school bully and plots to bring her down.

After Rashmi wins three medals at the Asian Games, the national selector, Niharikas's father, is so upset that he asks Rashmi to have a sexual test, and a lady from the national sports system unfairly grounds her with a summons to be medically examined. Rashmi is forced to blood testing and sonography after being degraded by being asked to remove all of her clothes.

She fails the hyperandrogenism test because her testosterone levels are slightly higher than the usual woman's. Niharika and her pals mock her for being more of a guy than a woman when she returns to her hostel. Rashmi becomes enraged and gets engaged in a scuffle after being shocked and harmed, and Niharika is slightly injured.

Someone later complains about a boy being at a ladies' hostel, and Rashmi is detained; the cops smack her, and she is sent in the male jail. What will be happening now that Rashmi has failed the test?

Ending explained in detail:

What happens to Rashmi?

Gagan Thakur, an army officer, saves Rashmi. The media hears about the gender test before the results are released, and there is a massive uproar in the media.

Rashmi has been banned from participating in sports due to elevated testosterone levels. Rashmi is mocked in the media for not being a woman, and she is exposed to a great deal of harassment. Rashmi's family and the people of her community are split.

When the lawyer Ishit Mehta (Abhishek Banerjee) pays them a visit, Rashmi's mother tries to convince her to file a complaint against the sports authority, but Rashmi refuses, and her mother asks her to go since her house does not have a place for cowards. Rashmi then leaves her house and goes to live with Gagan.

Gagan supports her and recommends they marry. They marry in a tiny ceremony attended by his friends and family.

The court case

Gagan urges Rashmi to keep practising in the hopes that the ban would be removed one day. Rashmi is convinced to launch a complaint against the sports authority for unfair testing and ban, as well as the police for human rights violations, after watching a television interview in which Niharika rants against her.

Meanwhile, they discover Rashmi is three months pregnant. Ishit is eager to utilise this knowledge to aid the argument for lifting the ban, but Rashmi refuses to let him.

Throughout the course of the investigation, it is revealed that Priyanka, Niharika's friend, contacted the police station on Mr. Chopra's orders to report about 'a male' staying in the ladies' hostel. Mr. Chopra is asked to retire from his position at the Sports Authority, and his daughter Niharika opposes him and isolates herself from him.

Ishit wins the case for Rashmi, and her ban is revoked. Her family and village are overjoyed. Despite being pregnant, Rashmi competes in the race, and the film concludes happily.
