Justice T. Vasudev is murdered in his house, and after his death Coir is pushed into his mouth by the murderer. One of his close friends, businessman Kuwait Mani, seemed to be quite upset with this murder. Days later, Kuwait Mani is killed in an intentional car accident. After his death, coir was also inserted in the mouth. SP Haridas Damodaran IPS is assigned the investigation. Haridas orders his sub-ordinate Joy to collect details of similar murder cases from history. It is found that Rosario Fernandes, who was found to have poisoned himself to death also had coir in his mouth. The cops had not thought about this significant, as it was something that a victim might do in his last moments after consuming poison. The investigation later reveals that all of the victims were college classmates, and the next target is expected to be a businessman named Philip Thennalackal George. The investigation lead them to suspect named Christy, who was the son of Rosario Fernandes and Sreedevi Rosario.

Sreedevi had died bed-ridden owing to a disease. Haridas captures further information about Christy by meeting Sreedevi's father C. K. Gopala Menon, that he was behaving abnormally of late and his whereabouts are unknown. From a nurse named Leeladevi, it was also traced that Christy was present in mysterious circumstances when Sreedevi died in the hospital. On roughly questioning Philip, he reveals that they (Vasudev, Mani, Philip and Rosario) all had a longing for Sreedevi in their college days, but she didn't bother about them. When an opportunity came, they had assaulted her to death. During an event Haridas meets the chief guest Warrier, who is a spiritual leader having devotees all around the world. Later, Warrier locked someone in his house and called Haridas for help. Warrier claimed that the stranger tried to kill him and an encounter between Hari and the stranger took place in which the stranger narrowly escapes. The cops are able to trace and arrest Christy on murder charges, and is returned to the mental asylum he had escaped from.

While undergoing treatment, Haridas transfers Christy to the police hospital citing better treatment and caring. Christy is subjected to Narcosynthesis, due to which Haridas learns that Christy has been misled by someone, who is most likely responsible for the crimes. Later, Christy escapes from the hospital which threats Haridas's job. Philip calls the cops for protection, but Haridas doesn't give him. Haridas and Joey watch Philip's home to catch the unknown culprit. It turns out that the perpetrator was Warrier, because during college time Sreedevi was initially his wife and the trio assaulted her in front of him. Aftermath, Warrier was under treatment for mental problems and set off for pilgrimage. When Warrier arrived back to the city and settled, he witness everyone who hurt him was happy and nothing wrong has happened to them. So he set out himself to avenge the injustice. Christy is proven innocent and brought back to a normal life, while Warrier is arrested for the serial killings.
