Moderate scary or upsetting scenes: a daiva lets out a guttural scream. A tribal village fights a forest officer over land and ritual faith; possession scenes are called hair-raising, the hero drinks and is rowdy, and his courtship includes unwanted touching. Also moderate sexual content, mild violence and mild substance use.

Summary

Shiva, a tribal vagabond lives with his mother in hamlet, stays away from the traditional Daivaradhane and Bhoota Kola legacy due to an unforgettable childhood incident. He is happy loafing around with his friends and doing petty jobs for his landlord. When Forest officer Murali enters the scene, it gives a fresh dimension to the man-vs-nature fight. Can Shiva save the forest from Murali? Or is Murali just a dummy bait cast by bigger fish?

Filmi puts it at 12+, and the CBFC certified it U/A.
