Bhavuji, a ruthless rowdy, receives a chilling update: Rathnavel Pandian IPS is alive, contrary to the belief that he was killed by Bhavuji’s younger brother, Bhadra. Fueled by vengeance, Bhavuji and his men rush to Rathnavel’s grave to exhume the body, only to discover a coffin packed with heavy rocks — a grim omen that Rathnavel has survived and that the hunt is far from over.
Meanwhile, Rocket Raja and his partner, Kaatu Poochi, drift through a life of petty crimes, stealing expensive items and conniving to fleece those they approach.
