In the film, Masrani is first seen flying a helicopter with his co-pilot, and it is stated that he will get his license in two more days. While flying, he discusses Jurassic World with park manager Claire Dearing, and makes it clear that he believes that happiness is most important for humans and dinosaurs, and tells her lessons about how one cannot be in control. When the "Indominus rex" escapes, Masrani orders it captured alive since he has $26 million invested in it. When most of the ACU team (Asset Containment Unit) is wiped out, Masrani confronts the hybrid's creator, Wu, who claims that he engineered it under Masrani's orders for "cooler" animals. Masrani later pilots a helicopter to track the "Indominus rex", and he takes two ACU soldiers with him to shoot and kill the animal. The "Indominus rex" flees from the helicopter gunfire and breaks into the park's aviary, letting loose "Pteranodons" and "Dimorphodons". Pterosaurs collide with the helicopter which crashes into the aviary, killing Masrani in an explosion.
