Plot

[edit]

The film begins with three youngsters - Ashwin, Kishore, and Praveen - who are friends from college days, deciding to lead a life by investing in a resort business. As they start the business, everything goes smoothly until they begin to witness paranormal activities in the resort, making their lives tougher. Immediately, they contact a nearby church father, but it fails miserably, and their fear of that ghost increases. The Father suggests they approach a world-renowned mentalist named Rudra who has parlor tricks, mental tenacity to make clever guesses, special powers of contacting with the spirits, and also assists the Police Department as a human lie detector with his cold reading techniques. Rudra decides to solve the mystery in the resort. Beyond a shadow of doubt, he finds that it is a soul of a girl Amrutha, who is seeking answers for her death. Rudra assures Amrutha that he will help her.

Amrutha starts revealing her past. She was an intelligent student who has grown up with values and norms given by her father Parandhamaiah. Once, she goes out on a college excursion when someone secretly films her while bathing in the same resort, which is purchased by three youngsters and uploaded on the internet, which led to her father’s suicide. After this, Amrutha also committed suicide out of humiliation. Now, Rudra starts his investigation to catch the real culprit. At last, he finds that the culprit is Kiran, the daughter of Chandra Shekar, who is the Vice Chancellor of the Institution. The reason behind Kiran's deed is jealousy about Amrutha's popularity and her love interest Nandu's fondness towards Amrutha. After knowing the truth, Amrutha tries to kill Kiran, but Rudra stops her way by reminding the morals taught by her father and making her soul rest in peace. Finally, the movie ends with the three youngsters running their resort successfully with a caution that cell phones are not allowed and Rudra moving towards a new mission.
