One rainy evening, a hit-and-run accident occurs near the market. A scooter rider (unnamed) is critically injured. Each of the four protagonists crosses paths with the aftermath — Aravindan finds the injured rider and tries to help; Sherin arrives later on duty at the hospital; Manoj, rushing away after a business dispute, sees the scene but keeps going; Imran witnesses a shadowy figure fleeing and later gives a vague description to the police.
Sherin, treating the injured rider, discovers he carries a folded note with cryptic references to "Chathuram" and a list of four initials. As she interrogates the victim, fragments of a separate story emerge: the injured rider was linked to an old land dispute and a clandestine deal involving the four protagonists indirectly — debts, threats, and one secret meeting the night before. malayalam movie chathuram full

Act III — Revelation Sherin and Aravindan independently pursue the truth. Their inquiries reveal overlapping connections: the injured rider had tried to expose corruption in the municipality tied to Varghese and a hidden real-estate "square" (chathuram) project that would displace poorer families, including Aravindan’s neighborhood.
A climactic confrontation occurs at the chathuram site — an abandoned tile factory shaped like a square plot, symbolic of the trap everyone has entered. Accusations, confessions, and betrayals come to light: Manoj admits he borrowed money from Varghese and was coerced; Imran reveals his friend was the one driving the scooter but fled out of panic; Varghese is exposed for orchestrating intimidation to secure the land. The injured rider succumbs to injuries in the hospital, and his final words implicate an unlikely person — a respected community leader who stood to benefit.
Act II — Conflict News of the hit-and-run spreads. Police investigation is slow and hampered by local politics. Tensions arise as community pressure mounts for swift justice. Aravindan, haunted by guilt that he left the injured alone for fear of being blamed (he lacked ID and feared harassment), begins to suspect the local influential businessman Varghese of involvement because Varghese’s car has fresh scratches and he was seen nearby.
