Raghu escapes from jail and hides in a quiet bungalow owned by a college friend, Geetha. He confesses to Geetha that he is a convict on death row, and in that moment, the police unexpectedly arrive. Raghu makes a desperate dash for safety and crawls into a wardrobe, hoping to vanish from sight. A dead body drop from the wardrobe’s confines, and Geetha reveals that the body is her husband, Chakravarthi, and she had killed him. The police, however, announce that Chakravarthi had boarded a flight to Calcutta earlier that day and that the flight crashed, leaving no survivors. When the officers depart, Geetha asks Raghu to help her dispose of the corpse, and he agrees, partly out of necessity and partly to keep his own mission intact.
Geetha’s tale unfolds as the pair transport the body to the outskirts of the city. She opens up about her past: Chakravarthi was a wealthy but cruel man, a secretive sadist who tormented her. Geetha’s confidant, Babu, is a disco dancer and a close friend who seems to stand by her side. Chakravarthi grows suspicious that Geetha and Babu share an affair, and his verbal and physical abuse intensifies. When Chakravarthi cancels a business trip to Calcutta and returns home instead, his rage is triggered by the sight of Babu in Geetha’s house. Babu leaves, planning to return with the police, and Chakravarthi menaces Geetha, prompting her claim of self-defense in his assault. Raghu, moved by her story, chooses to stay with Geetha and offer support, while also revealing that he has a broader mission of his own.
A stranger later phones Geetha with a chilling threat: pay a sum of money or the caller will alert the police about Raghu and Geetha’s involvement in Chakravarthi’s death. Geetha and Raghu suspect Babu might be behind the blackmail since he knows Chakravarthi never flew to Calcutta. Geetha then discloses a shocking twist: she did not kill Chakravarthi. She had hidden in her bedroom when Babu left, and upon discovering Chakravarthi already dead, she assumed Babu was the killer and decided to take the blame to protect him. Nonetheless, Geetha follows the blackmailer's instructions to a hotel, handing over money, only for the blackmailer to back out. In the midst of this, a random person is shown being stabbed to death, deepening the tension and raising questions about who is truly pulling the strings.
Raghu accompanies Geetha as the money drop becomes a tense ritual, but then the police close in. It turns out the blackmailer is actually a police officer, Inspector Sarath, who had come to Geetha’s house after learning about the plane crash. Sarath is investigating the case and had grown suspicious of Geetha when he spotted Raghu with her. He arrests the blackmailer and later arrests Babu, Geetha, and Raghu, revealing the extent of his own involvement. During interrogation of Babu under harsh methods, Raghu breaks, shedding light on his past.
Raghu unveils the full arc of his history: he was in love with Sindhu, a woman who worked at Chakravarthi’s firm. Years earlier, Chakravarthi and two friends had attempted to rape Sindhu. Raghu intervened, a brutal confrontation ensued, and Sindhu died, with Raghu bearing the blame and facing arrest. Raghu escaped from prison, travelled to Chakravarthi’s home, and killed Chakravarthi. He is stunned to learn that Geetha had become Chakravarthi’s wife, and that she had taken the blame for the murder to protect Babu. Raghu also admits to killing one of Chakravarthi’s friends during the aborted money drop at the hotel. He remains haunted by Sindhu’s death and is determined to uncover the third person involved in Sindhu’s fate. The film closes with Raghu still on the run, resolutely continuing his search for that elusive third party.
