His father insists that Varadan should come with them to Mumbai for a Kathakali performance but Varadan defies his father and goes to Bangalore to take up his new job.
In Mumbai, Ramankutty and his daughter happens to witness the murder of a popular politician at the hands of a famous magician turned underworld don Shankar Das alias J.S..The wicked Sankar Das kills Ramankutty and his daughter to eliminate all proof of the murder. But Ramankutty had called Nambeesan (his close confidante) on his mobile before this and informed that he saw Sankar das killing the politician. When Varadan comes back from Bangalore, he gets to know from Nambeesan that his family has been murdered by JS.
Varadan goes to meet Sankar Das and tries to beat him up in anger. But he gets arrested and gets beaten up badly. He is rescued by Karanavar, another underworld kingpin.
