==Plot==
''Rambo'' is a film that revolves around a trickster, Kitty ([[Sharan (actor)|Sharan]]). He has a mother in the house. He has a maternal uncle Premkumar (Tabla Naani) to his company. In a way it is ''Varahavatara'' from Kitty to his car brokerage business. He catches the sentiment in the society that any vehicle should not dash against a pig or vice versa. The superstitious belief is that it would smash your life further. No one is ready to take this risk in life.

Using the pig, Kitty was very cool in his set up to take the cars to custody for his business. In one of the cases a black colored car owned by Umesh is demanded by a Swamiji. The deal comes to Kitty and Premkumar. With this, further danger also follows the two. When they open the bonnet they find a dead body inside. This body is chased by a terrorist gang and the same car is also chased by former minister Annappa (Rangayana Raghu) as it has ₹25 crores in it.

Knowing about the death, Kitty wants to hand it over to the party who demanded it as he finds a murdered person. In the later course of time they find out that it belongs to a minister and the money inside makes them greedy. In such a situation Kitty wants to know why terrorists are behind that body in the trunk of the car. He scans the body and finds a pen drive tucked inside. That explains a terrorist gang is up to some major disturbance of peace.

Kitty comes straight to DC Vijayalakshmi (Shruthi) and becomes a good citizen by handing over everything to the government.
