The film opens with two old men discovering a corpse which happened to be a teenage school girl named Samyuktha, a 15-year-old school student who was found brutally murdered and wrapped in a polythene bag.

Arun Kumar (Bellamkonda Sreenivas) is an aspiring filmmaker who wants to make a movie on psychopaths. After being rejected many times despite having a good script and due to pressure from his family, he decides to give up his dreams and become a sub-inspector with the help of his brother-in-law, Prasad (Rajeev Kanakala), a police officer himself. He moves and stay with his sister Sopna (Vinodhini Vaidyanathan), Prasad, and their daughter Siri (Abhirami). Siri gets into trouble when she makes Arun forge her father's signature in her report card as she failed in two subjects. Her class teacher Krishnaveni (Anupama Parameswaran) figures this out and thinks that she signed it herself. Siri brings Arun to her school to act as her father. Later, which Siri is caught by her parents, this leads them to transfer their daughter to another school. Later, Arun meets and befriends Krishnaveni and her niece Kavya (Dua Kaushik), who is speech deprived.

A teenage school girl named Amrutha is abducted on her way back home. Her parents then find a mutilated doll's head in a gift box attached to their dog's collar. Arun finds a similarity between Samyuktha, who was murdered few days ago, and Amrutha, both of them being 15-year-old school students who were kidnapped while returning home from school. Just like Samyuktha, the hair on the doll's forehead is uprooted, the eyes are drilled, and her mouth is damaged. Apart from that, in particular, there is a knife mark on Samyuktha's forehead, ears and nasion. The same marks were found in the doll's face . He tries to convince ACP Lakshmi (Suzane George), his superior egotistical officer, that this was a psycho at work, but his theories are brushed off as fake stories.
