A masked man abducts Vijay's mother Sithara and his sister Abi Nakshatra and begins threatening calls to force Vijay's hand. He orders Vijay to break into the house of the local don Kaali and fight him, warning that failure will cost the lives of his family. The kidnapping sets a tight deadline that drives Vijay to choose between safety and action.

ACP Yazhvendan leads the investigation into the kidnapping and the masked assailant's demands. The team struggles to trace the anonymous caller and locate the victims, while public pressure mounts. Time is critical as the threat to the family persists.

The masked man communicates his demand directly to Vijay, insisting he break into Kaali's house and fight the don. He makes no bones about consequences, telling Vijay that his mother and sister will die if he refuses. Despite initial hesitation, Vijay agrees to comply to protect his family.

Vijay enters Kaali's house and engages the don in a brutal, solo fight. Kaali is defeated and killed by Vijay during the confrontation. The act pushes Vijay further into a vigilante path, fueled by personal stakes.

The kidnapper extends his reach by abducting the son of Dr Karunakaran, the government hospital dean. Vijay and Dr Karuna end up at a location specified by the masked man, which keeps the plot moving toward the truth behind Karuna. The stakes escalate as more lives hang in the balance.

The masked man comes online to disclose what he claims is truth about Dr Karuna's conduct. He alleges that Karuna exploited the oxygen shortage during COVID-19 to profit by selling cylinders to private hospitals. The online revelation adds a digital trail to the case and intensifies public scrutiny.

During the COVID-19 lockdown, oxygen cylinders were scarce and Karuna allegedly misused his position to divert them to private hospitals. Dr Anitha, who worked at Karuna's hospital, sought to expose him and was killed by Kaali and his henchmen. The backstory explains the corrupt motives fueling the conflict.

The accumulated revelations and losses deepen Vijay's resolve to act, presenting a personal vendetta as a fight against systemic corruption. He embraces a vigilante path to dismantle Karuna's network and protect his family. The plan matures as he weighs the consequences.

In a climactic confrontation, Vijay defeats Karuna, ending the corrupt doctor’s power over oxygen distribution. The act frees his mother and sister, who are then released by the masked man. This marks the decisive turning point in Vijay's quest for justice.

Following Karuna's death, the masked man releases Vijay's mother Sithara and sister Abi Nakshatra. They are safe for now, though the wider case remains unresolved. The release signals a temporary resolution for the family.

Yazh tracks the masked man's location and moves to arrest him, but the fugitive escapes. The case is left open and investigators are left with questions about how to proceed. The reveal of the masked man's identity remains imminent.

Vijay is acquitted on the grounds that his actions saved his family. ACP Yazh then reveals that the masked man is Vijay himself, prompting questions about motive. A flashback is shown to explain his rationale and the choices he made.

A memory sequence reveals that Vijay’s father sacrificed his own oxygen to save a pregnant woman during the shortage, dying in the process. This act becomes the emotional core of the family's vendetta against Karuna. The plan to expose Karuna and kill him had been years in the making.

ACP Yazh acknowledges Vijay's motives but chooses not to disclose them publicly. The case ends with a morally ambiguous tone, where vigilante justice is neither fully condemned nor openly celebrated. The truth remains within a private circle.
