Vikram is the son of a government servant who falls in love with an ahimsa-buddhist girl named Trisha, the daughter of a rich businessman in Bangalore. Time passes by, Vikram and Trisha fall for each other, but Trisha distances herself from Vikram as she finds his involvement in violence. Due to this, Trisha heads to Rajasthan where her father arranges for her to marry a police officer, but Vikram also arrives there and manages to convince Trisha, who tearfully reunites with him. They head to Bangalore to seek blessings from their family. Just before their engagement, Vikram is secretly attacked and killed by Trisha's father and his goons as Trisha's father hates the alliance.

Reception
Critical response
A. Sharadhaa of Cinema Express gave 3 out of 5 stars and wrote "Vikram Ravichandran and Akanksha's debut might be formulaic, but Trivikrama is definitely worth a watch, and it is a confident start for two rising talents that have the potential to make quite the mark."[6] Sunayana Suresh of The Times of India gave 2.5 out of 5 stars and wrote "Trivikrama could still appeal to those who want the formulaic romantic storyline with regular doses of action and songs. But if you are looking for something more or different, it might disappoint."[7] Prathibha Joy of OTTplay gave 1.5 out of 5 stars and wrote "Kannada filmmakers really need to stop what they think is playing to the gallery with these cliched lines that harp about the popularity of the star whose kid/grandkid they are working with. Trivikrama gave me a massive headache. Should you go ahead and still watch it, well, you’ve been warned."[8]
