Red Alert

Riya, Catherine, Yamuna and Saheeba are four employees working in the Infosys company, near Chennai. Having a drastic past, the four struggles a lot in their life. 

Like men, they have full freedom to talk, freedom to move and freedom to enjoy. They live near Mylapore in a rented house. The four are orphans, being grown up in an orphanage trust. Being an woman, it's really challenging for those four in their everyday life.

Since, they have to fear some men, who lust after women especially the hard-core womanizers, who hail from highly influential and rich background families.

On the other hand, there comes a guy named Aravinth Krishna. He is the elder son of a political leader M. Rajapandi, the Local MLA in Thambaram. He is a spoilt-brat and alcoholic and also a womanizer, who goes to any extent in order to satisfy his lust of having sex with women.

One day Riya, Catherine, Yamuna and Saheeba come to a fun mall near to Tambaram since they are now given holidays for Saturday-Sunday. The four enjoy to the core in the mall and at that point of time, Aravinth sees Riya and he is smitten by her beauty.

Overcome by lust, the animal inside him starts to burn and out of curiosity, he goes near to her and says, "Hi beauty. You look so sexy and beautiful" and he kisses her face. Out of anger, Riya slaps him in front of everyone.

Angered with the humiliation, Aravinth calls his friends Vishnu and Vijay and with their help, he kidnaps Riya from the fun mall. Besides Riya, Yamuna, Saheeba and Catherine were also kidnapped and Riya is brutally raped by Aravinth while, Vishnu verbally rapes Yamuna. However, when Vijay tried to rape Catherine, she pushes him away and also takes Riya, Yamuna and Saheeba for safer sides.

Riya and Yamuna lament for the incident. However, Catherine and Saheeba console the duo telling them that, "Since, we are women those guys took advantage of our weakness. We should prove to these guys that, we are also bold and are capable of doing anything."

"How could we? Those men are highly influential. While, we are all orphans. Who is there for us to support?" asked Riya.

"One man is there, Riya!" said Catherine and Saheeba.

"Who is he?" asked Riya.

"His name is Gokul Krishna. One of the successful lawyers, before some years. If he comes, we would be able to get justice" said Catherine.

"However, there is a risk in this Riya!" said Saheeba.

"What risk?" asked Riya.

"Now, he is an alcoholic. A few years before, his wife Janani was killed by some goons and as a cause of his wife's death, he became a drunkard" said Catherine.

"Let's handle it. It's a small issue" said Yamuna.

Meanwhile, Rajapandi learns about the rape issue, that was made by his son and shouts at him for doing like such. To save his reputation as well as to save his son from the case, he meets Commissioner George Fernando, to whom he bribes Rs. 1 Crores and asks him to arrest Riya and Yamuna on false charges of indulging in prostitution.

As planned by Rajapandi, the duo were arrested by Inspector Ramya, who had been appointed by Fernando. However, in an unexpected way, their plan backfires. Because, Saheeba and Catherine brings Gokul Krishna for the rescue of Riya and Yamuna and with his help, they bails the duo out, claiming for their innocence. In further, he eventually gives up his alcohol.

Rajapandi also learns this, when he was finding information about the details of those four girls from the orphanage, where they had grown up. Meanwhile, Riya, Catherine, Saheeba and Yamuna are fired from the Infosys on a temporary basis, until the case completes.

Riya and Yamuna's case comes to the Madras High Court. Rajapandi is accompanied by a famous criminal lawyer named R. Mayilvaganam while, Riya's advocate is Gokul Krishna. 

"Who is dealing with this case?" asked the court judge.

"I am dealing this case, your honor" said Inspector Ramya.

"My lord. I wish to interrogate Ramya regarding this case. If you permit, I may proceed with the interrogation" said Gokul Krishna.

"Ok. Please proceed…" said the Judge.

"Inspector Ramya. On what charges, did you arrest Riya and Yamuna? May I knew please?" asked Gokul Krishna.

"Sir. They have been informed to be indulged in prostitution. In further, they tried to kill the son of MLA Rajapandi. Henceforth, I arrested the duo" said Inspector Ramya.

"No…You are lying" said Gokul Krishna.

"Objection…my lord. This advocate is trying to threaten the Inspector of this case by saying that, you are lying. We have a strong witness for this case, my lord" said Mayilvaganam.

"Please call those witnesses," said the Judge.

The witness people consisting of the hotel manager and a middle-class man near to the house of the four are monetized by Rajapandi's family and henceforth, they answer against Riya and Yamuna.

However, Gokul Krishna manages to prove that, their witness are false and shows a video, which consists of their meeting with Rajapandi.

"Since, there are some confusions in this case, I postpone the judgment date to 23.12.2020. Court is adjunct" said the Judge, after finalizing the reports.

On 23.12.2020, the case again comes to the court, where Mayilvaganam argues that, "The girls had been indulging in prostitution and the duo tried to kill Aravinth and his friends. To save themselves, these girls have beat them up severely."

Out of anger Riya tells, "This is a foolish argument, your honor" which infuriates the judge and henceforth, he again postpones the judgment day to 02.01.2021. Gokul Krishna becomes anger against Riya for speaking bad in the court, but he calms down, later on.

Gokul observes the activities of Rajapandi's son(Aravinth) and his friends, with the help of his associates and through them, he gets a photo of them, indulging in alcoholism as well as pranking women, through abusive words. In the meantime, Mayilvaganam asks Aravinth to divert Gokul by angering him to the core, when he interrogates him.

On 2.01.2021, Aravinth and his friends were interrogated by Gokul and as told by Mayil, he tries to anger him.

Gokul and Mayilvaganam show their respective evidence with Gokul's point proving to be successful. Finally, when Aravinth is interrogated by Gokul, he tells that, "Girls who are being born into a good family do not drink or indulge in bad habits" after which, Gokul shows a video of Aravinth's cousin sister, indulging in drugs.

Out of anger, he tells to him that, "Even if this court punishes him, he will escape from the law through supreme court's guidance."

"Gokul. Do you want to tell anything?" asked the judge.

"I like to tell some of my words regarding this case, your honor. If you permit, I may say my point" said Gokul.

"You can proceed with your point, Gokul" said the Judge.

"Not only Riya and Yamuna, my lord. But, there are so many other women, who are unable to raise their voice against the domestic violence and sexual harassment. We have seen so many cases like this. Starting from the case of Nirbaya to the Pollachi incidents, what steps did we initiate against these brutal criminals? Do we give them harsh punishments? Either we give them a life imprisonment or death sentence. But, what's use of it? Will the crimes stop? It continues. We must have a harsh punishment, that are being followed in other countries like Pakistan, Afghanistan, Russia and Germany. If a girl says no, it means no. Be it a wife, child, prostitute or any others. No means no. Still more, India is not developed. Its main reason is gender inequality, my lord. Many fear giving birth for a girl child. Because crimes are increasing against them. However, I am not only accusing men. But, also women. They also do mistakes. Henceforth, law is equal to all. Let it be a man or woman. Domestic violence, Sexual harassment, Rape, and Dowry should be stopped with severe and harsh punishments, my lord. As per our Indian penal code section 345B(for making them naked), Section 354 A(for violence) and Section 345 D(for touching the women, without her permission), Aravinth and his friends should be given a minimum of 12 years imprisonment. That solve, my lord" said Gokul Krishna.

"What Gokul Krishna told is an 100% fact! Our country is still poor because of gender inequality. We are given a red alert through these incidents. However, considering the Indian law, Aravinth and his friends are given 12 years imprisonment as per Section 345 B, 345 D and 354 A" said the judge, his final verdict.

On hearing this, those four girls become happier and thanks Gokul Krishna for supporting them, while Mayilvaganam, being defeated, shakes Gokul Krishna's hands for winning the case and while Krishna leaves from the court, everyone praises him for raising his voice against women harassment. 

Aravinth and his friends are sent to prison while Riya, Yamuna, Catherine and Saheeba lead their normal life and continues to go for their job. Gokul Krishna returns to his profession as a lawyer and proceeds to go for another case, that is related to women's harassment.
