After the murder incident of her father left her mother fell sick, Jamuna decides to take up her father’s job, despite stiff opposition from her aunt, who feels men are more suitable as cab drivers. One day, Jamuna gets a long-distance ride to drop three passengers, who look very suspicious. At first, she refuses to take up the ride and requests one of the passengers to cancel the booking. However, they request her to take up the ride and she obliges, but it doesn’t take her much time to realise that they’re contract killers, who are on their way to kill a local minister. Will Jamuna be able to stop the attack and save herself is the rest of the story.

Director P Kinslin reserves most of its thrills for the last 10 minutes. The action sequences shot inside the car are one of the highlights of the film. They’re realistically choreographed, and serve as some of the highs of the film. If only more thrills were infused the story throughout, this would’ve made for a riveting watch.
Aishwarya in the central character is good but the rest of the supporting cast doesn’t contribute much up with their performances.
