Karthikeya

In Greece, archaeologist-professor Ranganath Rao discovers a forgotten legend etched into a book attributed to Ptolemy. The tale centers on Shri Krishna and his confidant Uddhava, who guard an anklet said to reveal solutions to humanity's deadliest problems in Kali Yuga. This discovery hints at a centuries-spanning quest that will echo through time.

In Hyderabad, Dr. Karthik is suspended after slapping a Mayor attempting to perform a Yagna inside the ICU. The incident cascades into a family omen when his father breaks a leg and Tulasi plant is knocked over, fueling belief that Krishna's vow was violated. His mother urges a pilgrimage to Dwarka to reconnect with his devout uncle Sadananda.

The next day, Rao, mortally wounded, tries to speak a crucial message to Karthik before dying. When Karthik returns with an auto to take Rao to the hospital, he finds Rao vanished and only fragments of a message remain, hinting at a larger secret at work. The unsettling encounter foreshadows a conspiracy that spans time and continents.

Following Rao's disappearance, the village and local police obstruct Karthik's efforts, and his mother goes missing under suspicious circumstances. He must clear his name while reckoning with a warning that feels increasingly real and dangerous. The stakes rise as the pursuit pulls him toward a hidden history connected to Krishna.

Mugdha, Rao's granddaughter, enters the scene and helps Karthik slip through custody to continue the search. Her presence bridges Rao's ancient legacy with the present quest and provides crucial access to hard-to-reach clues. Together they form a resolute trio that traverses from Hyderabad toward the mythic trail.

A revelation arrives when a letter from Rao exposes a penultimate clue and unveils Santanu as the leader of a secret society manipulating the quest for personal gain. Rao's murder acts as a catalyst that drags Karthik, Mugdha, and Sadananda into a wider conspiracy spanning continents. The warning sharpens the sense that older powers are at work behind the modern chase.

Guided by Mugdha and Sadananda, the trio heads toward Govardhan Hill with Suleman as a valuable ally. They must outwit villagers lured by a monetary bounty and solve new clues that point toward Krishna Thatakam. The journey tests their resolve as time tightens and danger grows.

An ancient, peacock-shaped artifact carved with Sanskrit inscriptions steers their steps toward a hidden entrance to Krishna Thatakam. In Rao's style, they uncover a functioning telescope and additional clues that tie the past to the present. Mugdha's quick decoding opens the next phase, and a perilous desert escape follows.

The Abheeras, a clan cast out for defying Krishna, confront the trio as tests of courage. They challenge the group with temptations of power while demanding reverence for Krishna's wisdom. The escape continues as Mugdha returns with Dr. Dhanvantari, a blind philosopher who reframes Krishna as a human genius and healer.

Dr. Dhanvantari clarifies that Rao and Santanu belonged to a secret society convinced that ancient India possessed advanced technology. He reframes Krishna not just as a deity but as a blended figure—engineer, healer, and musician—whose legacy underpins the anklet's supposed medical knowledge. Karthik begins to see the anklet as a potential breakthrough that must be guided by ethics.

A perilous river crossing on a frozen route becomes a life-or-death moment for the travelers as they race toward the final phase. They barely escape drowning, while celestial patterns and the telescope's clues steer them toward an underground entrance. The sense of scale grows as the chase nears its climactic reveal.

The group deciphers celestial patterns to access a long-lost underground corridor guarded by serpents. Karthik must prove his bond with Krishna's legacy to advance, combining science and empathy to move forward. The corridor leads toward the fabled treasure—an entrance that promises the anklet.

In a climactic act, Karthik links the telescope and the peacock-shaped object to form a symbolic flute and places it into Shri Krishna's idol, unlocking the underground passage. The hall of snakes reveals the anklet and a path back to the world, securing a dramatic victory for science-guided faith. His triumph is tempered by the moral weight of the power now within reach.

Santanu attempts to draw Karthik into a secret circle by wielding the anklet's power to reshape the world, but Karthik refuses to cross ethical boundaries. The Abheeras' resistance strengthens, and Santanu's machinations crumble under collective will. The trio's victory reaffirms the balance between knowledge and responsibility.

The ending hints at a broader horizon: Karthik becomes a national figure and is drawn toward a new mission to uncover the link between Krishna and the Atlantic currents. The final image shows a submerged city and skeletal remains near an ancient doorway, suggesting a future where ancient wisdom could illuminate or endanger humanity. The film closes on a note of awe, responsibility, and the endless quest for progress.
