A small-time xerox shop owner, Prakasha, makes a shocking discovery: his machine can create living, breathing human duplicates. What begins as a simple trick quickly turns dangerous as these clones multiply and cause chaos. As the copies threaten his life and expose dark secrets, Prakasha must find a way to stop the madness before his reality is completely taken over by his own creations. There is a likeability that Nagabhushana brings to the role of the common man, Prakasha, internalising his little concerns, dilemmas, and conflicts. Payal Chengappa, as Sooji, gets a juicy part as a girl lost between two men, though the resolution to her conflict feels too simple and cinematic.
