'Supari' endeavors to be a fun, entertaining ride that does not take itself too seriously. It is the story of Raghu, an assassin who kills people for money. Raghu is not only deeply devoted to his mother, but is also preparing for his marriage with his girlfriend, Richa. The latter is seemingly quite tired of her lover's devotion to his parent, but now things are about to take a positive turn for them as Raghu is planning to introduce her to his mother, before carrying out one final job. In the process of finishing the said job, events unravel in quick succession, completely altering the course of the narrative. The tone of frivolity is maintained throughout, as the fates of the characters go for a complete spin. When it is all said and done, who will be the last one standing?

The story is set in a village where Saaru, a school-girl, runs into a strange peer one day. The two immediately strike a friendship. Saaru even begins to skip school to meet Aditi who, on the other hand, is quite evasive about letting the former into her life. As doubt begins to form in the viewer’s head, the plot starts its movement towards the final reveal. 

At the same time, the village is plagued by frequent tiger attacks. The beast has the people in its clutches, their livestock and safety completely at its mercy. The two narratives soon overlap, and the story reaches completion. Though the plot loses points in execution, the desire to weave a story remains evident.
