A former detective Chidambaram (Sarathkumar) is dealing with Alzheimer's after surviving an attack and car crash five years ago. To preserve his memories, he writes a book about his past cases, including the unsolved 'Smile Man' serial killings. At his book launch, he meets Aravind (Sri), the son of his missing colleague, Venkatesh (Suresh).
Chidambaram learns that several criminals are now free and starts investigating, only to be murdered by the 'Smile Man' killer, sparking a new series of killings. Chidambaram, despite his memory loss, teams up with Aravind to track down the killer, eventually uncovering that Prabhu, a mortuary worker, is behind the murders. Prabhu, obsessed with Chidambaram's fianc¨¦e and her daughter, killed them along with other victims to make them smile after death.
In the final confrontation, Chidambaram kills Prabhu, but his Alzheimer's leaves him with no memory of his actions, and he ends up in a rehabilitation centre.
