Ghost Movie Story/Plot
An anonymous person and his gang hijacks the central prison in Karnataka, where they hold prisoners, prison officials and ex-CBI officer Vamana Srinivasan hostage. ACP Chengappa is assigned to solve the hostage issue. A cat-and-mouse game ensues between the anonymous person and Chengappa, during which the person is revealed to be an infamous crime boss Dalavayi Muddanna alias "Big Daddy".
Chengappa learns that Dalavayi and his gang hijacked the prison in order to steal hidden gold bars. It is revealed that Vamana had discovered the gold bars during a CBI raid and had hidden it in the prison due to public attention of a controversial gold scam. Vamana and the prison officer Thomas decided to retrieve the gold by implementing privatisation of the prison in order to distract the public, but one of Vamana's officer named Prabhu learnt about their plan and decide to expose their secrets. Vamana found out about Prabhu and killed him, making it look like a suicide. He also killed Prabhu's disabled wife Geetha after she learnt about his plan.
Dalavayi and his team find the gold in the prison's newly constructed library. Vamana initiates his next plan to release dangerous prisoners in order to kill Dalavayi and his team. However, they are revealed to be Dalavayi's previous henchmen. Chengappa learns about Dalavayi and is later revealed that he and his officers had killed Dalavayi in a car accident previously. Chengappa suspects that the one who hijacked the prison as Dalavayi is an imposter. Chengappa confirms the same and reveals the information to the henchmen.
The henchmen attack the imposter Dalavayi, but he manages to defeat them. The imposter Dalavayi initiates his escape plan by sending his henchmen to travel with the prisoners in the bus, while he transfers the real gold through remote control mini boats and keep the fake gold in the bus. He eventually escapes through a secret route, while Chengappa is unable to identify Dalavayi's henchmen. A few months later, Home Minister Vijayalakshmi assigns a spy agency called "Pithamaha" headed by A. N. Rao to solve the case due to pressure from the government.
It is later revealed that the imposter posing as Dalavayi lis actually Rao's son and Prabhu's elder brother Anand Rao. Anand and Rao learnt about Vamana's plan and his involvement in Prabhu and Geetha's deaths, where they decide to clear Prabhu's name and expose Vamana. Anand decided to pose as Dalavayi by wearing a prosthetic mask and hijacked the prison. Anand finally exposes Vamana and gets him arrested. While paying respects to Prabhu and Geetha, Anand gets a call from Dalavayi's son, who demands him to return the gold in exchange for rescuing his team members, who had helped him in the prison hijack. Anand and Rao set out to confront Dalavayi's son.
