In 1993, Rajakannu and Sengeni, a couple from the oppressed Irula tribe, worked in the fields of oppressive caste men to control rat infestation and catch venomous snakes. One day, Rajakannu was summoned to catch a snake that had entered a rich man’s home. The following day, the man’s wife reported a case of burglary and raised suspicions about Rajakannu.
After the incident, Chandru, Mythra, Sengeni, and the Irular tribe joined forces to fight against injustice. During their investigation, Chandru discovered that Irutappan had called Varadarajulu, but the police had forced him to do so. Meanwhile, Mythra located Iruttapan and Mosakutty, who testified in court about the torture they had experienced and how the police had killed Rajakannu.
