A tense political thriller built on suspicion and betrayal, where a politician's gun acquisition and an enemy's murder entangle him in a web of accusation and evasion.

Ramanunni, who was the MLA of revolutionary party CDP, crosses over to the opposition as their candidate for the by-election. He procures a revolver and when one of his arch-enemies is gunned down, Ramanunni becomes the suspect. The protagonist's attempt to wriggle out of the wrangle forms the rest of the plot.
