Prema Katha Chitram

The movie starts with Sudheer Babu, Praveen and Nanditha plan a group suicide because of their failures in their respective lives. Firstly they try to fulfill their last wishes before leaving this world. Nanditha wants to steal a new car and Sudheer wants to slap the local MLA in his own house. After stealing a new car and slapping the local MLA, the trio flees away from there to a nearby resort after escaping from the police. At the resort, the car is stolen and the trio enters the resort to have some food. There, yet another suicide aspirant joins them and the four reach the farmhouse. There, Praveen and Nanditha, who is in love with Sudheer, plans to postpone their suicide for three days so that they can prevent Sudheer from committing suicide due to love failure.

Their plan turns successful and in that interval of three days, all the four get close to each other. Sudheer develops feelings for Nanditha but hesitates to tell her for fear of being humiliated by her. At the end of the third day, Praveen asks Nanditha to kiss Sudheer to divert from death, per male psychology. He meanwhile requests Sudheer to kiss Nanditha as she wants to experience her first kiss before dying to which Sudheer accepts with shame and shyness. As he tries to kiss her, a ghost enters the body of Nanditha, who forces Sudheer out of there. A flabbergasted Sudheer runs out of the room. Whenever Nanditha shows her feelings to Sudheer and Sudheer reacts to it by hugging or touching her, the ghost enters her body and scares Sudheer away. Unaware of the ghost's entry into her body, Nanditha grew depressed.

That night Sudheer learns about Nanditha, a hotel management student who falls for him, her neighbor. Sudheer never observes her and his intimacy with another girl leads Nanditha to plan to propose to Sudheer at any cost. Praveen, who wants to prevent Sudheer from killing himself, uses this opportunity and plans the combined suicide. Thus the four are aware that they are not going to die. When Praveen hears Sudheer describing Nanditha as a ghost, he rushes to Nanditha's room to scold her and ask for an apology to Sudheer, only to see the ghost enter her body and thrash him. That night, too experiences the ghost's fury at its villainous best. The trio decides to distance themselves from her and always stay together.

Later, the trio have made multiple attempts to get the ghost to vacate Nanditha's body, only to earn the wrath of the ghost. After Nanditha realises the ghost's presence in her, she too accompanies the trio to escape from there, in vain. The group decides to leave the house hoping that the ghost wouldn't bother them. However the ghost comes out and forces Nanditha back inside. Sudheer tries to her to come but the ghost slaps him, telling him to go. Frustrated and enraged that the ghost has tortured and ruined him for so long he slaps her twice. Nanditha becomes sad and runs back inside the house. This forces the group to stay back as they will only leave along with her. As Sudheer apologises to Nanditha, she asks hugs and asks him to never leave her. However Sudheer pushes her back saying that them being close will make the ghost mad and asks her to keep her distance. Nanditha becomes hurt and depressed, resulting in a suicide attempt by slitting her wrist. Three rich men enter the farmhouse who permit the four to stay there. One of them is the owner of the farmhouse. Sudheer reaches Nanditha but in turn, is requested to kill those three by the ghost. Sudheer asks her the reason for vengeance, and the ghost narrates her story to the trio.

The ghost is Lakshmi, a newly married girl who enters the farmhouse with her husband for their first night. There these three drunk men break the boy's head with a champagne bottle and rape the girl. The boy dies after being impaled accidentally and drowning in the swimming pool. Then those three men bury her nearby. Sudheer, Praveen, and Saptagiri decide to fight them and are successful in killing them. The ghost leaves Nanditha's body. The trio takes her to a nearby hospital, where Sudheer donates blood to her. She gains consciousness, and the movie ends with Saptagiri and Praveen watching the couple hugging each other.[7]
