The film opens on a rain-slicked Bangalore street. Chandra (Kalyani Priyadarshan) arrives in a battered auto-rickshaw, carrying little more than a suitcase and a secret. She’s a goth-influenced woman with charcoal-black hair, silver rings on every finger, and a gaze that seems to see through walls. She takes a night-shift job at a quiet café across from a rundown apartment building. That building houses Sunny (Naslen K. Gafoor) and Venu (Chandu Salimkumar), two aimless bachelors whose lives revolve around cheap beer, chai, and spectating.
Sunny becomes obsessed. He watches Chandra through binoculars from his window-her late-night walks, her mysterious visitors (including a man in a raincoat who never speaks), and her reclusive behavior. Venu mocks him, but Sunny’s fascination is real. Then, one night, Sunny catches a glimpse of Chandra in her act-something supernatural, something violent, something that shatters his mundane reality. The film spirals from a quiet character study into an action-fantasy thriller, revealing Chandra’s true identity as Kalliyankattu Neeli, a centuries-old vengeful spirit bound to a human form. Inspector Nachiyappa Gowda (Sandy, in a scene-stealing role) begins investigating a string of bizarre deaths, and Sunny is dragged into a war between ancient forces.
