When they are robbing the bank, the criminal being held in the Jail cell escapes. This leads to a whole sequence of events, leaving both Shinda and Balli wanted by the police.The best part about Daaka is that it is super entertaining. Although the story is a bit clichéd, the writer and director have handled the plot in a way to make the film thoroughly enjoyable. Each frame of the movie stands out and Daaka is inarguably one of the best-shot Punjabi movies ever.The film starts off on a high with Gippy and Zareen’s on-screen romance and the subsequent problems in their journey of love. The chemistry between the lead actors is nostalgic as it brings back memories of the immensely likable Jatt James Bond. Daaka escalates the moment Shinda and Balli plan to loot the bank. The proceedings become even more interesting as both of them are amateurs in the business of bank robbery. The entire track inside the bank involving their characters and the addition of Baninder Bunny and Shehnaaz Gill is hilarious and brings the house down. The story takes many twists and turns, keeping the viewers hooked to the screen.
