Panneer was arrested because he was the last person to see Dhayalan alive. When Dhayalan was found dead in his hotel room with a knife in his chest, Inspector Bhoominathan and Constable Mariadas immediately targeted Panneer as the prime suspect due to his direct connection to the murdered bookie.

Earlier scenes show Panneer dropping Dhayalan at the hotel, establishing him as the last known contact.

The movie does not explicitly reveal who killed Dhayalan. His murder remains unsolved as the investigation focuses on catching Albert, the mastermind behind the IPL spot-fixing operation. The killer is never identified on screen.

Albert escaped the police trap and remained at large. Despite the police setting up an elaborate plan with Panneer's help to lure Albert, the mastermind outsmarted the trap and slipped away. The film ends with Albert's identity and whereabouts unresolved.

The police received a tip about Albert planning to fix a bowler in the semifinal, showing he was always one step ahead.

Panneer won two crores from the betting scheme because the film producer who freed him had already placed a massive bet on the semifinal match. Panneer's involvement as the last person to see Dhayalan gave the producer the confidence to place the bet, and the bet succeeded regardless of whether Albert was caught.

The producer explained he needed Panneer because being connected to Dhayalan gave credibility to their scheme.

The film producer posed as a Maharashtra Police Officer to free Panneer because he wanted to use Panneer in a betting scheme. Panneer was the last person to see Dhayalan alive, and the producer planned to leverage this connection to place a massive bet on the IPL semifinal to pay off crores in debts he owed to another producer.

Albert was the mastermind who ran the entire spot-fixing operation for IPL matches in Chennai. He controlled the bookies and planned which bowlers would fix specific overs in crucial matches. The Chennai Police Commissioner received a tip that Albert planned to fix a bowler during the semifinal, triggering the main investigation.

The tip-off at the beginning of the movie established Albert as the head of all fixing operations.

Dhayalan used Panneer's taxi to roam constantly across Chennai because he wanted to create a GPS smokescreen for the police. By constantly moving and keeping the taxi in motion, he made it difficult for investigators to track his actual location and movements, protecting the spot-fixing operation from being uncovered.

The GPS signals were deliberately muddled throughout the taxi rides, showing this was a calculated tactic.

Panneer was essentially coerced into the betting scheme. After being freed by the film producer, Panneer was pulled into the plan because the producer needed someone connected to Dhayalan to give credibility to their betting operation. Panneer had no real choice but to go along since the producer already involved him in his scheme.

The producer's intervention came right after Panneer's arrest, making his involvement seem obligatory.

Panneer turned his chaotic involvement into financial gain. After winning two crores from the betting scheme, he used the money to start his own call taxi company, while his wife Rama used their new wealth to open a restaurant. Their fortunes improved dramatically despite the criminal chaos surrounding them.

The rapid sequence of events, from murder discovery to arrest to betting, created opportunities for Panneer to profit.
