The film begins with a man handing taxi driver Aravind, a police informant, a video of suspicious activity. Later that night, a man named Vasu drives across the road to see Aravind dead. Vasu is arrested by corrupt cop Bhupati Raju, who beats him up and frames him.

8 years later, once Vasu gets out on parole, Ramachandra, a lawyer takes up his case.

Sangeetha Devi Dundoo felt that, in the story, Rashomon effect was used by the character Ramachandra, by which he tries to look at the crime from different points of views.[11] In an article published by Firstpost, Hemanth Kumar wrote that the filmmaker draws parallels between historic figures (here, it is Mahamantri Timmarusu) and present-day lawyers.[12] Sibi Jeyya felt that the protagonist of the film, Ramachandra, has similar characteristic features, when compared to Sherlock Holmes.
