KGF-Chapter 1
               Journalist Anand Ingalagi's Book 'EL-DORADO', that detailed events at the Kolar Gold Fields(KGF) between 1951 and the present day has been banned by the Government of India and all published copies are burnt. However, a television news channel (24/News) procures a copy. Deepa Hedge(The chief Editor) interviews Anand circling the events.

Ingalagi narrates that one of gold was discovered by commissioned government officials in the southern part of India's Mysore State(Kolar District, Karnataka) in 1951.

Raja Krishnappa Bhairya alias 'Rocky' is also born on that day of the discovery in the Mysore region, to a poor and widowed woman.

Discerning the increasing demand for gold by the Cold War Belligerents, Suryavardhan, one of the workers that accomplished the officials, deceitfully sets a company named Narachi, in that land, bought for a lease of 99 years on the pretext of mining milestones.

Suryavardhan has five associates: 1) Kamal, the son of a former associate, 2) Rajendra Desai, the father of Reena(Kamal's Fiancé), 3) Andrews, who oversees operations in the Konkan and Malabar coasts, 4) Guru Pandian, a powerful politician and president of the DYSS party, 5) Suryavardhan's brother Adheera.

However each of the five associates has their eyes on Suryavardhan's mines. The third associate, Andrews' underboss Shetty is a gold smuggler in Bombay, the city that has also another smuggler, Dubai-based Inayat Khalil's eyes set on.

Rocky arrives in Bombay as a ten year old on a quest of power and wealth as desired by his dying mother and begins to work for Shetty. Rocky becomes Shetty's right hand man later and oversees the arrival of gold bars from Africa to the Bombay coast with an iron fist and soon Rocky rises in strength and power rivalling that of Shetty's.

This attracts Andrews who offers him Bombay in return of assassinating Garuda(the younger son of Suryavardhan), who was seen to inherit KGF after his paralysed father's passing. Rocky accepts the offer and heads to Banglore where an event is staged for that purpose(Kill Garuda). Once there, Rocky witnesses the sheer presence, authority and power that Garuda commands and has the attempt averted(left it).

In 1978, at KGF, a bedridden Suryavardhan announces Garuda as his successor overlooking Adheera who Suryavardhan wants to serve as the latter's aide. Garuda's ruthless wax of functioning aided by his Commander Vanaram comes to fore.

Rocky soon makes his way into KGF evading a unit of henchmen. Once there, he witnesses the brutality that the slaves are subjected to. Although apathetic at first, he's moved by a couple of incidents involving a cold blooded killing of a mother and son at the hands of an overseer and the slaves' children hoping that Rocky will rise to liberate them.

Beginning Rocky's attempt at it and to indicate Desai and men through informants, that Kulkarni and Garuda's virtuous brother Virat(eldest son of Suryavardhan), that he was alive(everyone thought that he was dead), as planned, Rocky engages in a fight with a unit of twenty-one overseers killing each one of them in order to save a blind slave they were to kill. With the act, Rocky emerges as a hero in the slaves' eyes.

An alerted Vanaram now informs Garuda who heads towards the mines from his palatial residence. To avert thousands of Slaves being killed due to his fury, Virat smothers father Suryavardhan to death and sidetracks Garuda, who rushes back home.

At the mines, Rocky seizes the opportunity, conspires and unsuspectingly heads through a tunnel to the side where Garuda has decided to behead three slaves as an offering to a deity. Upon Garuda's return to the site and sacrifice two slaves, a concealed Rocky emerges and beheads him. The ectatic slaves accept him as their leader as they cheer him on.

Anand(The Journalist) concludes that Rocky intentionally chooses KGF as the site to assassinate Garuda in order to earn the will of an 'army of people' the slaves, before he seized KGF to his control but still there are people who are waiting to acquire the throne and how Rocky will face them as one army and why he was given a death warrant by Prime Minister Ramika Sen will be shown in Chapter 2.

The end of KGF Chapter 1.
