Plot

Raja is a police constable who lives with his colleague Baskar. He falls in love with Ranguski, an aspiring writer. He often visits Maria, a senior citizen living in a villa community, who has demanded police protection as she is an antique collector and possesses many valuables. Maria and Ranguski live in the same housing complex. Raja tries to woo Ranguski by prank calling her in the name of a stranger and forcing her to love him instead. As Ranguski is frustrated by this, she falls in love with Raja.

To Raja's surprise, he finds that Ranguski still receives such calls from a stranger. Soon, he too receives such calls, and the caller threatens to kill Ranguski. Raja rushes to Ranguski's home to save her, but he finds out that the killer has killed Maria instead. With circumstances proving that Raja is the killer, he plans to work with Baskar and Ranguski to find the real killer. They deduce that the killer is also part of the villa community. When Raja goes to meet a photographer who claims to know who the real killer is, he finds the latter has been murdered. He is then arrested by CBCID officer KK but manages to escape custody and reunite with Ranguski and Baskar. Raja says that while at Maria's house on the day of the murder, he saw a man with a tattoo on his forearm. They then track down that man, John. John says that he went to Maria's house looking for the highly valuable Gutenberg Bible but found her already dead.

Raja then asks Ranguski to meet KK and hand him a recording of John's confession. They then find John dead. Raja receives a call, which seems to indicate that Ranguski has been kidnapped. The police then rounds up Raja and Baskar. However, Raja fights off the police and runs away to find his friend Shiva. Shiva tells him that the last location of Ranguski's phone was at a church in Cheyur. Raja visits the church and meets Maria's twin sister Mary, who reveals that Ranguski is the one who committed all the murders and framed Raja.

Meanwhile, Ranguski, in possession of the Gutenberg Bible, meets the buyers, the contact she got from John before killing him. While trying to escape with the money, she is shot by the police and dies in Raja's arms. Before dying, she reveals to Raja that she never loved him and that she used him as a pawn to conceal her crimes.
