Jasmine Khan is a computer engineer, who wears contact lens due to vision problems. She meets her next-door neighbour Chandrashekar, a retired judge with a haunted past. The two become friends. Jasmine meets Vijay, a news reporter and the executive director of True Vision who is on a mission to eliminate corruption through Media Channel. During a Christmas, Chandrashekar is killed by a mysterious man, who is seen but not recognized by Jasmine, as she was not wearing contact lenses at that time.

ACP Anand suspects Jasmine as retired DGP R.V. Thampuran was killed in her presence in a shopping mall, but is unable to prove due to Vijay's (Anand's college senior and close friend) interference and lack of evidence. The investigation for the true killer begins where Anand tries to find the real killer. Soon, Jasmine finds the killer as Vijay. What is Vijay's true motives behind the killings forms the rest of the plot. ^{[2] [3]}
