With permission from Bose Ninan (Venu Nagavally), the IG of police, Baba Kalyani arrives in Kochi. He is posted in the Law & Order department undercover with Godwin Joseph (Biju Menon) and a couple of ATS officers assisting him. All his men are newly inducted IPS officers.

A bundle of counterfeit currency is found at a local bank, which was transferred from the account of a charity organization run by Sait Isra Mohammed Haji(Saikumar), a respected businessman. Baba Kalyani reaches the residence of Isra Mohammed the same night, where Isra denies any knowledge about any hawala dealings in the state. The cash was transferred from the account by Babur (Indrajith Sukumaran), Isra Mohammed's son-in-law, who is also a college lecturer. Babu is king-pin of a terror organization in the state. He is with a bunch of young men had secretly undergone Jihadi training in Pakistan and is planning a massive explosion.
