Plot
Thyagu (Vikram) is a dedicated medical student who seems ordinary to the outside world. However, disturbed by the widespread corruption and injustice in society, he secretly leads a group of friends who abduct corrupt bureaucrats and politicians. They hold these officials captive in a secret hideout and force them to undergo a "reform" process. Sandana Pandian (Nassar), a sharp police officer, is assigned to investigate the mysterious disappearances. As the cop closes in on the vigilante, the film reveals the tragic backstory that turned a medical student into a revolutionary seeking justice.
