Authentic and action-oriented, this fiery crime drama is set against the violent and vengeful backdrop of gang warfare. A gang led by Aliyar (Thilakan) holds a grudge against Police Officer Haridas (Vishnuvardhan), who was responsible for the death of Antony's (Mammootty) wife and daughter 12 years ago and also sent Antony to jail. When Antony is finally freed, he reunites with his old gang and they plan to kill Haridas. Antony then discovers that his daughter, whom he thought was dead, is actually still alive and had been raised by Haridas as one of his daughters. Antony meets his long-lost daughter but Aliyar and gang are not ready to leave Haridas. Antony pleads to the gang to leave Haridas alone but fails to stop them. How will the violent confrontation between Haridas and Aliyar unfold? Can Antony find a way to protect Haridas and express his gratitude to the police officer for the years of love and care he had lavished on Anthony's daughter?
