Vikramadithyan (2014) – Full Plot Summary & Ending Explained

Read the complete plot breakdown of Vikramadithyan (2014), including all key story events, major twists, and the ending explained in detail. Discover what really happened—and what it all means.

Kunjunni Menon, a witty thief, falls in love with Lakshmi, a police constable. While following her one day, he finds out that she wishes to marry a policeman. Vasudeva Shenoy, Laksmi’s colleague expresses his desire to marry her despite his mother’s objections. Kunjunni poses as a police constable and manages to marry Lakshmi before Shenoy can convince his mother. Shenoy gets married, and both couples are blessed with baby boys on the same day. Lakshmi finds out that Kunjunni cheated her, but they pretend to have an amicable marriage. A young Adithyan still believes his father to be a policeman, and he and Shenoy’s son Vikram become rivals in school and start competing with each other, wagering that the loser should salute the winner, a habit they then carry into adulthood. Adithyan always ends up losing.

One day, Kunjunni is caught red-handed by Shenoy and his team while attempting a robbery and is paraded half-naked throughout the street. Unable to face a distraught Adithyan and berated by Lakshmi, Kunjunni reaches a bridge and commits suicide. Years later, Vikram grows to be a hard-working young man while Adithyan becomes lazy and does petty illegal activities to earn money. Adithyan falls in love with Deepika who is Vikram’s close friend. Once the duo pass their degrees, they both decide to apply for the SI selection test. Though the two share a healthy rivalry, Shenoy is spiteful towards Adithyan, who outranks Vikram in the preliminary round. However, Vikram acknowledges Adithyan’s superior intellect, displaying his deep respect for his rival.

Shenoy traps Adithyan in a narcotics case and is desperate to put him behind bars. He also guards the evidence personally. Adithyan is saved when Vikram secretly swaps the evidence with lactose powder. Adithyan expresses his gratitude, revealing that the respect they hold is mutual. In a final attempt, Shenoy convinces Lakshmi that he is the one who swapped the evidence and asks her for a favor in return. Lakshmi hides the interview memo Adithyan was to receive and only Vikram’s name appears on the list for the final exam. A heartbroken Adithyan blames Lakshmi for Kunjunni’s death and claims that she could have changed him had she tried. Adithyan disappears that night.

2 years later, Vikram becomes the new SI and takes charge on the day of Shenoy’s retirement. The new sub-collector Lokesh is among one of the guests, and comes to congratulate the father and son. Lokesh reveals that he met Adithyan on a train journey to Delhi and stopped him from committing suicide. The two later became close friends and roommates. On Lokesh’s insistence, Adithyan prepares for the UPSC exams while doing odd jobs in between. Both of them clear the exam together and Lokesh reveals that Adithyan is now an IPS officer in the Kerala cadre and has been posted as ACP, Shenoy and Vikram’s superior. Shenoy is forced to accept defeat and salutes Adithyan.

Satisfied with his revenge, Adithyan decides not to tell Vikram. Vikram manages to find out and salutes Adithyan publicly. The two embrace and acknowledge their friendship. Vikram asks Adithyan to accept Deepika’s love and reveals that his next goal will be to catch up with Adithyan.
