He is the man under whom black-marketing, smuggling and robberies flourish. No-one has an idea about his evil deeds. Not even his close friend IG B. G. Menon. Menon is very worried at the sorry state of affairs in the city and state. The government requests to bring back Inspector Jayamohan to the city as he is an honest and fearless cop. Jayamohan comes to town and starts cracking on the criminals with an iron hand. Jayamohan is a widower who has 2 small children. Besides them IG Menon loves him like his own son and treats the children as his grandchildren. After making substantial raids Jayamohan comes to know that Lion C. Menon is a corrupt man and a demon for the society. He plans to spill the beans in front of everyone but is killed by Lion C. Menon's men. Before dying, he keeps a typical clue for the police to nab the criminal, but nobody is able to understand what the clue says. Menon is heartbroken and he loses hope in life. Due to a friend he comes to know that there is a ferocious prisoner Vikrman in a jail who resembles Jayamohan. Menon visits him but finds him a beastly figure. Still in an attempt to trace the criminal he gets him released and takes him to a hill station where he attempts to transform him. But Vikrman is a tough nut to crack. However after sometime it is Jayamohan's sister who wins the heart of the fugitive. Vikrman was in prison as he had murdered the people who had raped his sister. He was still in search of the main culprit Bhadran who was a fellow shooter with Vikrman in a circus but wanted to enrope his talent in killing a man. Vikrman makes peace with Menon and slowly but steadily transforms into a police inspector. He manages to win the heart of Valsala and even the kids of Jayamohan accept him as their father.
