Everyone gets together for a vacation after a long time. Once, they all visit their temple on a given day when some ill-fated events occur which they predict as inauspicious due to a forgotten ritual sacrifice that involves the slaughtering of a rooster called Nani, from their poultry. The thought fuels each family member to blame it as the cause of their problems. Right now, Rajugaru decides to ritual in the upcoming festival. Thereupon, as a flabbergast, Nani goes missing which makes the entire family aghast. Indeed, it has been concealed in the attic by Rajugaru's granddaughter Bangaram (Sara Arjun) in order to save it as she is fond of it. The rest of the story revolves around various attempts of Bangaram to save Nani and the family find it.
