Embedded with fierce action and intense emotion, this offbeat action drama traces the twists and turns in the life of Devanarayanan (Mohanlal), a Brahmin priest. In a cruel twist of fate, he is falsely accused of theft, and forced to leave his native village.
Thereupon, he relocates to Mumbai, where he meets and gradually becomes the trusted aide of an ageing don Kareem (Goga Kapoor), and slowly finds himself drawn into the underworld. When Kareem's ex-employee joins hands with his rival, Devanarayanan find himself caught in a terrible web of crime, violence, hatred and revenge. Will he succeed in defeating all their enemies before he loses everyone close to him?
