The Truth

Bharath Patteri is the SIT's lead investigator and the son of Patteri. He is methodical, principled, and skeptical of political interference, using sharp analysis to connect clues and push the case forward.

Hariprasad is the DGP and the mastermind behind the assassination plot. He exerts control over the investigation, manipulating evidence and allies to safeguard his political ambitions.

John is a dedicated detective whose findings about an explosives license threaten the entrenched interests. He is killed during the by-election fallout, and his investigation helps reveal the illegal network.

Patteri is a respected Brahmin astrologer and the father figure to Bharath. He senses ominous signs about Madhavan's fate, grounding the story in traditional wisdom and moral concern.

Madhavan is the Chief Minister of Kerala who cracks down on corruption, triggering fierce political backlash. His assassination becomes the catalyst that exposes the deeper conspiracy.

Meena Nambiar is the initial investigator whose media-driven approach complicates the case. Her obsession with headlines accelerates the SIT takeover and social pressure surrounding the case.

Pudhuval is a character in the investigation; the summary does not elaborate his role, but he appears within the crime investigation network.

Nimmi is the enigmatic woman tied to the assassination plot; she uses a forged pass and appears central to the initial phase of the case, though the killer is later revealed to be male.

Nambiar is a political figure within the cast who features in the social-political web surrounding the case; his exact role in the investigation is not detailed in the summary.

Pothuval is a police officer who assists Patteri in cracking the temple robbery and later features as part of the early investigation before the SIT takes over.
