== Plot ==<br />
<br />
Venkob Rao has [[Alzheimer's disease|Alzheimer's]] and has been admitted to an old age home by his career-driven son Shiva. Now settled in Mumbai, Shiva has come down to Bengaluru for a business meeting, the outcome of which could fulfill his long-standing dream of moving to the United States. Venkob Rao goes missing when Shiva takes him out shopping.<br />
<br />
Meanwhile, <br />
a local civil servant is murdered while uncovering a land scam and Ranga is entrusted with making the murder seem like an accident. With Venkob Rao going missing, Shiva is forced to confront the decisions he has made in the past when his dream of going abroad is all but realized.<br />
<br />
He begins looking for Venkob Rao reluctantly with the help of doctor Sahana from the old age home. Along this long journey, Shiva starts discovering little facets of his father's personality while forging a friendship with doctor Sahana. A clueless Venkob Rao ends up crossing paths with Ranga and his annoying young assistant Manja who are in the process of disposing the body of the civil servant. Kumar, a good Samaritan returning home, becomes entangled with Ranga, Manja and Venkob Rao. Shiva's search for Venkob Rao allows him to find all that's missing in his life while Ranga in Venkob Rao's presence finds something that he had lost years ago.<br />
<br />
Ranga, Manja and Venkob stay in Kumar's home. Ranga threatens the family with death if they expose the truth about the murder to the police. To cover up the murder, however, Ranga's boss orders Ranga to kill Kumar, his family and Manja, which Ranga reluctantly accepts. However, he doesn't proceed with the murder and lies that he has to his boss. Manja is in love with a dancer Reshma who happens to be a cohort of Ranga's boss. Manja inadvertently reveals that Ranga has not carried out the murder by telling Reshma this. When Ranga's boss discovers that he has not committed the murder, he sends a policeman to murder Ranga, but in the ensuing fight, they both die. Saddened by Ranga's death, Manja retaliates by killing his boss and Reshma.<br />
<br />
After this, Kumar who sees the missing poster of Venkob Rao calls Shiva and informs him about the whereabouts of his father. Shiva emotionally reunites with his father and also marries Sahana.<br />

Talking about what inspired him to choose such a subject, he said, "As a kid, I used to watch the missing reports on television news. The following day, I used to wonder what happened to those who had gone missing the previous day - were they found? When I started meeting people who have had people go missing in their family, I realized that, for the family, the lack of closure about the person who has gone away is the most important aspect. While this was one thread of the story, the other important element is the relationship between a father and a son, something that I have always been fascinated with."<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.deccanchronicle.com/entertainment/sandalwood/080616/hemanth-rao-and-the-masters-of-film-verse.html|title = Hemanth Rao and the masters of film verse|date = 8 June 2016}}</ref><br />
