Twin sisters Ramya and Saranya lead very different lives—Saranya is a medical trainee, while Ramya helps their parents run a small vendor business. Their world shatters when Lakshmi, Saranya’s close friend, is savagely murdered inside the hospital lab by Guna, the CEO’s son, and his ruthless gang. Ramya accidentally sees the killing and barely escapes with her life after being viciously attacked. Consumed by rage, Saranya turns hunter, systematically bringing the culprits to the brink of death. But fate twists the knife when her lover, Raghu, is assigned as the sub-inspector investigating the case. As Raghu pieces together the horrifying truth, a tense clash erupts between duty, devotion, and the raw demand for justice.
