Plot

Jayarama is a blind man, who is a part of a large family, and works as a lift operator and caretaker in a apartment building in Bangalore. He takes responsibility to earn money for his sister's wedding and is loyal to Krishnamurthy, a retired Supreme Court Judge who lives in the apartment and accompanies Krishnamurthy on a long search for someone. On one trip, Krishnamurthy tells about the reason behind his search to Jayarama. Years ago, a man named Vasudeva was imprisoned by Krishnamurthy for a crime he did not commit. Although Krishnamurthy knew that Vasu was innocent, he followed the letter of the law. As a result, Vasu's family poisoned themselves, which leaves Vasu insane, and resolves to avenge his loss by warning Krishnamurthy that he will kill him and his family.
