Two of Kerala's rival cops Shekhar and Anand, worlds apart from each other in personalities, work for the narcotics department. While Shekhar goes about his duty in a ruthless street cop manner, Anand's approach is professional and sophisticated. Both men in their different styles cause havoc and mayhem among the drug cartels which result in great loss for Reji Alan and his brother, Saji.
Amidst the fast-paced action love blossoms between Shekhar and Sethulakshmi, a girl who takes care of his mother. The relationship is portrayed through humor and mischief. Meanwhile, Anand, a deep-rooted family man, is bound by his brotherly devotion to his sister, Keerthi. The plot twists and turns with deceit and deception.
According to Prakash, Police is perhaps the first South Indian film to use the digital intermediate (DI) technology for color grading. [2]
