Uma Verma, Satish Verma’s wife has a secret lover who has killed her husband. A week later, a planning officer is also found dead and soon another murder follows. Inspector Rock struggles to establish a connection and the town is scared.

To make matters worse, a multi-crore fortune is at stake, and a wild and ruthless set of criminals are chasing it. They are in no mood to let anyone stand in their way.

Will Inspector Rock find the ruthless killers? Can Vinod Hegde rekindle his old love and get back to a normal life? Will Uma Verma finally find peace and happiness? Only time will tell. The only problem is, there isn’t much of it…
