Two exotic breed Kathals (Jackfruit) go missing from a tree in the garden of an MLA's house in a small town. Police inspector Mahima is assigned the case. The whole police unit is under a lot of pressure to find the kathals before they get ready to eat. The chief suspect is the gardener of the house who was recently fired, but when Mahima finds the gardener, it is discovered that his daughter has been missing for days while the police are ignoring all cases to look for the kathal. Mahima tries to find the gardener's daughter by tricking people into thinking that kathals are being stolen by her. How Mahima manages to juggle the high profile kathal case and also investigate the missing girl case makes the premise of this light hearted comedy which is actually a satire on government system.
