Plot summary
Poisonous liquid leaks from a container outside a research site in Ooty. A dog laps it up, turns vicious and bites a guard, who becomes a zombie within hours and passes the infection on through bites. Karthik, a traffic sub-inspector in Ooty, raises his teenage sister Vidya; the orphans live with his friend Chinnamalai, a constable. Karthik loves Renuka, a cardiologist, and has never told her; she is engaged to Naveen, another cardiologist. After Karthik crosses Minister Gurumoorthy, Vidya vanishes. Police are ordered to shoot the infected, and Karthik looks for her, putting up posters and killing zombies in his path, until a call brings him to Renuka and a group of doctors, led by Dharan, at work on a cure. Renuka asks him to save colleagues trapped in a house the infected have overrun.
