Plot

The movie is based on events that happen over a single night in Bangalore.

Sameer (Asif Ali) and Tina Miya elope to Bangalore after their days of love. They live in a flat owned by Achayan (Biju Menon). One night, a man named Tony (Lal) comes to their flat after he had an encounter with them. Later, he befriends them and goes into their flat where he starts torturing Sameer and Tina when they are alone. He asks them questions based on his life.

It is revealed that Tony killed his wife and put her in a bag and Tony came to Sameer in search of his wife's extra-marital affair with the person whom she affectionately calls 'Sam'. As Sam is a short name for Sameer, he gets in a fight with Sameer and later he is killed by Sameer. Later, Achayan comes to their flat and sees the flat destroyed and Tony killed. Achayan goes out and buries the body. It is later shown that the body which was buried isn't Tony's but Achayan's.

A flashback shows that when Achayan tries to bury Tony's body, he gets up and attacks Achayan. Now Tony is going to take revenge against Sameer when a truck hits Tony and he is killed.

Later, we see Achayan's house where his wife, Elizabeth (Lena) is in front of a wedding anniversary cake of them. Their children ask her when will Dad come and she says he will come soon. The frame moves from their room and goes out of their house and finally to the name board of their house which says 'Samson James', revealing that Achayan was the culprit and the real person that Tony was after.
