Additionally, he is blessed with a God-given brother, Prabha, who provides invaluable assistance in his business endeavours. Daya, a man of few words, diligently toils to secure a livelihood for the betterment of his family.
However, Daya’s tranquil existence is abruptly shattered one fateful night when he stumbles upon the lifeless body of a young woman in his freezer van. Before he can take any action, an unidentified caller blackmails him, coercing him to safeguard the body until further notice. Now burdened with anxiety, Daya fears the repercussions of involving the police and the outside world, from which he had previously sought refuge.
