Plot
Devika awakens from her slumber, feeling disoriented and bewildered. Concerned about her well-being, she inspects her body for any signs of injury and realizes that her earring is missing. Unfortunately, her memory of the previous day remains elusive. As a school teacher overseeing athletics, Devika’s colleague reassures her that her exhaustion is merely a result of the four-day sports meet held at the school.
However, her joy is overshadowed by a haunting trauma—she was violated by some college students during a recent school event. Choosing to keep this distressing experience hidden from her husband, she embarks on a quest for evidence. She attempts to review the CCTV footage of the incident, only to discover that the cameras were non-functional during that crucial period.
