Chingari, alternatively spelled as Chingaari, is a 2012 Indian Kannada-language action thriller film written and directed by A. Harsha.

Upon arriving at Switzerland, Geetha and Amrutha meet a handsome young stranger named Aravind who offers to share a taxi.

Dhanush hears someone breathing on the phone and tells the listener that he will not pursue the kidnappers if they release his girlfriend, but warns them that refusing to accept his offer will result in their deaths.

Srujan, Dhanush's colleague, deduces that the kidnappers are part of a sex trafficking ring and identifies the listener as mob boss Marko.

With the help of Vineesh, Dhanush flies to Switzerland, where he breaks into the apartment and finds Aravind's reflection in a picture on Amrutha's phone.

Yashas warns him not to get involved, but informs him of the local red-light district where Dhanush plants a listening device on a pimp.

When Dhanush identifies Marko by tricking him into saying "good luck," the meeting erupts into a fight which results in the deaths of several gangsters.

Dhanush leaves Marko to die from continuous electrocution and infiltrates a secret sex slave auction with his translator.
