In the quiet, mist‑shrouded hills of Kollimalai, a tight‑knit group of five young trekkers sets out for a weekend adventure, guided by the experienced forest guard Maari. The forest, once a thriving coffee plantation, now lies under a veil of local legend and whispered warnings about a forbidden stretch of land. As the sun dips behind the towering pines, the atmosphere shifts, hinting that the woods hold secrets far older than the travelers’ modern plans.

The friends—Charan, Meena, Sethu, Charu, and Jerry—bring their own mix of enthusiasm, skepticism, and restless curiosity. Their dynamic is a lively blend of banter and subtle tension, especially as Maari repeatedly reminds them to respect the natural balance and heed the cautionary signs that dot the forest paths. The guide’s quiet reverence for the land’s folklore contrasts with the group’s youthful urge to push boundaries, creating a palpable undercurrent of uneasy anticipation.

Beyond the trailhead, the forest’s dense canopy seems to pulse with an almost tangible presence. The locals speak of a malevolent spirit that guards the restricted zone, a force that does not forgive intrusion. The film’s tone folds these myths into a creeping dread, where every rustle of leaves and distant echo feels like a reminder that the woods are alive with unseen eyes. The tension builds not through overt threats but through an ever‑present sense of something watching from the shadows, urging the trekkers to reconsider their daring.

As night deepens, the group finds themselves caught between the allure of the untamed wilderness and the weight of the ancient warnings. The story promises a relentless, atmospheric confrontation with the unknown, inviting viewers to experience the fragile line between curiosity and peril that defines every step deeper into the haunted hills.
