In the bustling streets of Chennai, three close‑knit friends navigate the rhythm of modern life with a blend of ambition and camaraderie. Meera Krishnan is a spirited independent who balances work and personal dreams, while Famitha Banu carries the quiet confidence of a young professional caught between tradition and self‑determination. Andrea Tariang adds a fresh perspective, having arrived from another part of the country and eager to carve her own space in the city. Their lives intersect against a backdrop of lively cafés, crowded markets, and the ever‑present hum of a society wrestling with changing norms.

Amidst this vibrant tapestry, Bharath Subramaniam watches from the periphery. Once a celebrated litigator, he retreated from the courtroom after a personal tragedy left him grappling with depression and bipolar disorder. Now, his days are marked by solitary walks and the lingering echo of a career interrupted. Yet his keen sense of justice and intimate knowledge of the law keep him tethered to the world he once ruled, and an undercurrent of unresolved purpose stirs whenever inequity surfaces.

When the trio finds themselves entangled in a bewildering legal quagmire, the stakes become far more than personal reputations—they touch on the very definition of consent and the societal lenses through which women’s choices are judged. Bharath is drawn back into the fray, his own fragility contrasting sharply with the steadfast resolve of the women he chooses to defend. The film balances courtroom tension with quiet, character‑driven moments, letting the city’s pulse echo the internal beats of its protagonists.

Through meticulous dialogue and a measured visual style, the story sketches a portrait of resilience, the clash between entrenched biases and emerging freedoms, and the fragile hope that truth can still pierce through the fog of assumption. The atmosphere remains charged, inviting viewers to contemplate how far justice can stretch when compassion and conviction intersect.
