Set in the fictional village of Dakshina Kannada, the film follows a volatile Kambala (traditional buffalo race) champion who clashes with a righteous forest officer, Murali, over land rights and encroachment issues. However, the narrative soon transcends its human conflict to delve into the mythological. The story becomes a vessel for portraying , an ancient spirit worship ritual and a key part of the native mythology and traditions of coastal Karnataka. This authentic portrayal of indigenous belief systems is one of the primary reasons the film resonated so deeply with audiences, who saw a respectful and powerful representation of their culture on a grand scale.
