<p>Both Mustafa ( ) and Vimal ( ) are convicts who escaped during transport from Peermade to Ernakulam. Musthafa and Vimal are handcuffed together. Musthafa is a petty thief convicted of stealing a watch from a mall while Vimal is arrested for a murder he did not commit. Vimal asks Musthafa to help him to find the real killer whom he suspects, in exchange for 3 lakhs. They move through the forest and encounter wild creatures. Vimal tells Musthafa his story. Vimal is rich. He and Shalini (Sshivada), who is hearing-impaired, fall in love with each other and get engaged with each other. One rainy night, after reaching her Aunt’s home, Shalini calls Vimal for help because somebody enters the house. Even though Vimal reaches the house, he is unable to save Shalini from falling from the terrace. Shalini dies and Vimal is framed for her murder. The only mark on the real murderer is that Shalini stabbed the real killer. Then it is revealed that it was actually Musthafa who is the real killer. Musthafa stole the watch and put it into Shalini’s bag at the Shopping mall as police find him. At night Musthafa goes to take the watch from her house but Shalini sees him and thinks that he is a rapist and accidentally falls from the terrace.
