Maan Karate

In the heat of a weekend getaway, five tech‑savvy friends—Santhosh (known as Sandy), Joe, Gokul, Vaishnavi and Nikita—venture deep into the misty Chandragiri forest. Their light‑hearted hike takes a sudden turn when they encounter a reclusive siddhar, a mystic whose very presence seems to warp reality. The forest’s quiet is punctuated by the siddhar’s cryptic smile, hinting at ancient powers that linger just beneath the canopy, setting a mood that blends modern curiosity with timeless folklore.

Spurred by a mixture of skepticism and wonder, Santhosh daringly asks the siddhar for a copy of the next day’s Daily Thanthi—a newspaper that, by tradition, should not exist after the Ayudha Puja. The paper materialises, its pages filled with startling predictions that prove uncannily accurate. When the friends see a headline describing the sudden shutdown of their own company, they are forced to confront the paper’s credibility. The revelation ignites a collective greed, and they latch onto the most tantalising prospect: a story about a certain Peter who is foretold to win a lucrative boxing tournament and share a two‑crore prize. Intrigued and desperate, the group decides to track down this enigmatic figure, seeing in him the perfect conduit for the fortune promised by the mystical scroll.

The film balances the grounded world of IT office life with the ethereal allure of destiny, painting a landscape where ambition collides with the uncanny. Friendship dynamics ripple beneath the surface—each member’s personality quirks and hidden desires bubbling up as they plot their scheme. Meanwhile, Peter’s elusive reputation, coupled with the lingering presence of Yazhini—a sports‑enthusiast whose affection fuels the plan—adds a layer of romantic intrigue. With a tone that oscillates between comic optimism and subtle suspense, the story invites viewers to wonder how far ordinary people will go when the future seems already written.
