Plot
The Extradition
CBI agent Shivani Roy (Rhea Singha) arrests the notorious criminal Prajapathi in Dubai and boards a special flight to extradite him back to Kochi, India.
The Turbulence
Midway through the journey, rival crime syndicates launch deadly attempts to assassinate Prajapathi. At the same time, Prajapathi secretly begins planning his own escape, turning the flight into a chaotic, high-stakes battlefield in the sky.
The Mystery
Amid the chaos emerges Ved Vyas (Satya), a mysterious man suffering from memory loss and a fractured identity. As assassins, intelligence officers, and Vyas collide in a deadly game of survival, it becomes a race against time to uncover the truth — and determine whose side everyone is really on.

Music
The soundtrack and background score were composed by Kaala Bhairava.[6]
All lyrics are written by P. V. Sai Somayajulu.

Release and reception
Jetlee was released on 1 May 2026.[7]
The Assam Tribune rated it 2.75 out of 5 "with stronger writing in the second half, Jetlee could have been a far sharper and more consistently engaging".[8] Srivathsan Nadadhur of The Hindu opined that the cast gives their all to salvage the film, but they ultimately end up contributing to the cacophony.[9] Suresh Kavirayani of Cinema Express gave a rating of 1 out of 5 and felt narration is the biggest drawback of the film, while noting the performance of Satya and Vennela Kishore.[10]
