What happens in Velayudham from start to finish, spoilers included, with a timeline of 12 key events. The opening is below; the full summary is a 4-minute read.

Spoilers ahead

A young journalist Bharathi, along with two friends, investigates a string of terrorist attacks in Chennai and the hidden crimes that prey on women, including trafficking. Their hunt leads them into a secluded house where they secretly video-record illicit activities, but a group of thugs catches them in the act and a frenetic escape ensues. During the chaos, Bharathi’s friends are killed, and she narrowly survives a stabbing, her resolve hardening in the aftermath. A small misstep—an accidental ignition of petrol in a vehicle carrying the culprits—causes the thugs’ car to explode, ending a failed strike and underscoring the danger that shadows the city.
