Plot

Eight years after the events of the first film, Dr Vaseegaran creates an android humanoid assistant named Nila, which he introduces to a group of college students while reminiscing about Chitti, his previous creation, which he had to dismantle after the robot had gone on a murderous rampage. Shortly afterwards, all the cell phones in the city fly into the sky, causing a public panic. A council of politicians and scientists discusses the phenomenon, with Vaseegaran suggesting reactivating Chitti. However, a council member named Dhinendra Bohra opposes the idea, as Chitti killed his father.
