Tournament

The coach informs Viswanathan, Usman, and Balachandran that they have been chosen for the final selection tournament in Bangalore. They celebrate the news and meet Aswathy Alex, a freelance photographer who will accompany them on the journey. This moment sets the stage for both camaraderie and new dynamics within the group.

The team revels in their selection and welcomes Aswathy, a freelance photographer who will capture their journey. Her presence adds a fresh, creative energy to the group. The trio’s excitement expands into plans for the road trip ahead.

Right before the trip, Balachandran is injured while riding a bike and cannot join the Bangalore journey. The loss leaves Viswanathan and Usman with a smaller team just before departure. The setback foreshadows the challenges the trio will face on the road.

Viswanathan and Usman’s flight is cancelled because of a bomb threat, leaving the team grounded. Aswathy motivates them to take a road trip and enjoy the journey instead of letting the setback ruin their plans. Bobby joins the group to add another dynamic to the adventure.

The group sets off on a spontaneous road trip, embracing the freedom of travel and the chance to bond. Aswathy guides the mood with her photography and optimism, while Bobby’s presence adds energy and tension. The journey quickly becomes a tapestry of small adventures and close moments.

During the road trip, Usman contracts food poisoning from a Dabba and is hospitalised. His illness forces him to miss the tournament, altering the trio’s prospects and adding a sense of setback to their mission. The remaining friends rally to keep spirits up despite the disappointment.

In a sequence of flashbacks, it’s revealed that Usman pulled a thread on the road, contributing to Balachandran’s crash. This twist casts doubt on their camaraderie and raises questions about trust within the group. The revelation adds a darker motive to the journey’s earlier events.

The group’s jeep loses control and Vishwanathan injures his leg, forcing a halt to their travel for some time. The accident underscores how perilous their adventure has become and tests their resilience. They regroup and reassess their next steps.

Aswathy and Bobby team up to investigate John Subrahmaniyam, visiting a teashop owner who promises help. They infiltrate John’s home under the pretense of being related to his girlfriend, but John identifies them and warns them away. A scuffle ensues, and Bobby loses consciousness, heightening the danger.

In the chaos, Bobby wakes to find Aswathy apparently dead, and the tea shop owner seemingly helps him escape. A replay later reveals that Aswathy is not dead, shifting the narrative and deepening the mystery. The sequence accelerates the tension between truth and deception.

In another replay, it’s shown that Bobby opened the door, causing Viswanathan to fall and break his leg. This twist complicates loyalties and challenges the group’s perception of innocence and guilt. The truth behind the events becomes clouded by conflicting perspectives.

The tea shop owner is revealed to be John Subrahmaniyam, and Aswathy is his sister who staged her ‘death’ to secure John’s selection. The revelation exposes a calculated plot to influence the tournament outcome. The group grapples with the moral implications of manipulation for sport.

The selection tournament is cancelled amid the revelations, leaving the team in flux. John expresses regret over the deception, while Aswathy’s feelings for Bobby begin to surface. The cancellation creates a pause that reframes the contestants’ relationships.

The tournament restarts, and the group comes together as a team, setting aside earlier tensions. Even John competes alongside them, signaling reconciliation and a shared goal. The refreshed team atmosphere aims to honor their talents and friendships.

Viswanathan is named Man of the Tournament, validating his leadership and performance. In a celebratory closing, Bobby marries Aswathy in the presence of Viswanathan, Usman, Balachandran, and John. The film closes on a note of lasting friendship and romance.
