The Harikrishnans are among India’s most renowned legal duos, heading Harikrishnan Associates, a bustling firm that trains a large team of about three hundred lawyers. Hari Mammootty and Krishnan Mohanlal are celebrated for their sharp intellects and their seamless, almost telepathic collaboration in the courtroom. When Guptan is murdered, a case with murky motives and delicate family ties pulls them into a web of secrets. The early suspect is a quiet, hearing- and speech-impaired woodcutter named Gabriel, V K Sreeraman whose connection to Hari’s sister adds a personal stake to the defense. Gabriel becomes a focal point, and the defense begins to unravel the threads surrounding the murder.
