Two of Kerala's rival cops, worlds apart from each other, work for the narcotics department. Shekhar (Prithviraj), goes about his duty in a ruthless street cop manner. Anand's (Indrajith) approach is professional and sophisticated.

Both men in their different styles cause havoc and mayhem in the world of drug cartels resulting in great loss for super villain Reji Allan (Sachin Khedakar) and brother Saji (Ashokan).

Amidst the fast-paced action love grows deep between Shekhar and Sethulakshmi (Bhavana), a girl who takes care of his mother (KPAC Lalitha). The relationship is portrayed through humor and mischief.

Meanwhile, Anand, a deep rooted family man, is bound by his brotherly devotion to his sister, Keerthi (Chaya Singh). The plot twists and turns with deceit and deception.
