Rajani (Chandana Aravind) and Reshma (Chithra Rajesh) work at a leading IT company in Ernakulam and stay together in a hostel. Their friendship grows with Joshi (Kiran), Hari (Unni), Vishnu (Anay), and Ansil (Sulfi), who work at a well-known textile shop in Ernakulam. One day, the group goes on a trip to Munnar. Rajani and Reshma also arrive there, and all of them stay at a resort. As their days at the resort pass with fun, jokes, and laughter, a shocking incident suddenly takes place, leaving everyone stunned. The film then moves forward through a series of startling events that unfold thereafter.
