Resumen

Muthu, a youngster from a small town near Thoothukudi, comes from struggles and perils at every turn in his life. As a boy who harvests thorns in the dry, desolate, desert lands, he is accustomed to danger as a daily reality. One fateful day, the scorching lands threaten to end his life as the very thorns he harvests catch fire, resulting in a raging inferno. Rueing the dangers owing to his violent tendencies, Muthu's mother sends him to Mumbai, to work at a Parotta Kadai. Flustered and overwhelmed by the metropolis, he gets accustomed to his job and finds his way up through the ranks at the shop, all whilst dealing with the strange ruffians he now lives with. His journey introduces him to a breath of fresh air in the form of a woman, Paavai - saleswoman at a local clothes store, strong, bold, independent, witty and to this youngster from a small town in Tamil Nadu, almost daunting. Muthu's journey takes a drastic turn when he learns that he is deeply entwined in a vicious network of blood, crime and killing. What the young simpleton thought was a mere Parotta shop, reveals itself in its most treacherous form - a front from all sorts of crime, a den for contract killers. Arriving as a worker in search of a better life and some money to send back home to family, Muthu reluctantly embraces the dark side. Caught in quicksand, amidst a turf war involving a warring faction, Muthu struggles to come to terms with his newfound profession. Floating like driftwood in water, Muthu finds himself in an inescapable limbo of crime and violence. And just when he disavows the bloody path, Muthu learns that his journey thus far was just the beginning.
