Plot

28 Degree Celsius follows the heartfelt story of Anjali, a bright and compassionate young medical student who falls deeply in love with Karthik. As the two tie the knot and embark on their journey together, life takes a devastating turn.

Shortly after their marriage, Anjali is diagnosed with a rare and life-threatening illness. Her only hope lies in a specialised treatment available in Georgia. Her husband, Karthik does everything in his power to get her the care she needs, accompanying her overseas. After a brain injury, Anjali is dependent on maintaining exactly 28°C body temperature.

Sadly, Anjali dies unexpectedly, leaving Karthik heartbroken and full of unanswered questions.

Crushed by Anjali's death, Karthik senses that something isn’t right. As he refuses to accept the official explanation of her death, he begins a quest for the truth. What begins as a search for closure soon unravels a tangle of dark secrets, hidden motives, and dangerous people who don’t want the truth to come out.

As Karthik digs deeper, shocking revelations come to light, forcing him to confront painful realities and powerful enemies.
