A North Indian filmmaker makes his first Telugu film which upsets religious sentiments and invites the ire of a religious fringe group which disrupts and vandalises the film’s shooting. This is what we’re told about the film’s plot.

It begins with a graphic scene of self-harm by the lead actor. There are also other narrative threads in the film, like a rebellious love story, but it seems to catch the viewer off guard.
