Set in a vibrant rural community, the film follows Balanna, a devout man dedicated to his spiritual duties despite personal hardships like illiteracy and financial struggles. He finds joy in uplifting others, especially his academically gifted daughter. His life changes when he receives a mobile phone, opening a world of Yakshagana performances and digital possibilities. However, his innocence leads him into a scam, costing him his savings and his revered status in the village. As his world unravels, even his spiritual duties falter, shaking the community’s faith. A poignant tale of trust, resilience, and the clash between tradition and technology, the film explores Balanna’s struggle to rebuild and rediscover faith amid loss.
