Vairam tells the story of Sivarajan who fights for justice, as he loses his daughter Vairamani who is raped and killed. When the law is blinded by political and monetary power, he has no other option than to hunt down Thalikkulam Josekutty who hails from an influential Achayan family in Thodupuzha.
An investigative journalist of a popular magazine, Annie Jacob digs up the whole story, which becomes a sensation. An offbeat advocate Ravi Varma takes up the case for re-investigation.
