Cut to the present, where Priya (Geethika) is the intelligent daughter of Pichumani ([[Ramji (actor)|Ramji]]) and Gayathri ([[Sangeetha Krish|Sangeetha]]), who treat her like the apple of their eyes. Soon, she is possessed by the spirit of Savithri ([[Kaveri (actress)|Kaveri]]), who was ditched by her fiancé Nanjappan ([[Riyaz Khan]]). With the help of Kaali, it is the now the turn of Savithri and her brother Karuppu ([[Ganja Karuppu]]) to take revenge. How they punish Nanjappan and his sorcerer friend Mandiramoorthy ([[Shafi (actor)|Shafi]]) is the rest of the story.

''Sify'' wrote "The special effects and graphics are just ok; otherwise there is nothing in the film. Ramanarayanan has tried to mix witchcraft, sorcery, crass comedy with modern graphics borrowed from films like ?The Transformer? and ?The Car?.

''Deccan Herald'' opined that "With most films boasting of superior, state-of-art technology, “Bombat Car” looks like a pathetic attempt to win back the traditional audience of such films - women and small children. However, with able support from the graphics and special effects guys, the effect is tolerable - the handsome robot dancing in tandem with the prancing kid, not at all conveying menace.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.deccanherald.com/content/68208/revenge-can-fun-too.html|title= Revenge can be fun too|date=7 May 2010|work=Deccan Herald}}</ref> ''Bangalore Mirror'' wrote that Rama Narayanan "manages to keep the film interesting.

The technology usage despite of inspiration from the Hindi film 'Tarzan the Wonder Car', Hollywood's 'Transformers', 'Anaconda' etc Rama Narayanan has given a convincing film that is a Paisa Vasool.
