Sirai is a courtroom crime drama that follows the story of head constable Kathiravan, who is assigned to escort an accused man, Abdul Rauf, from prison to court.

Through flashbacks from Abdul’s life, the film reveals systemic bias and human struggles while exploring themes of identity, justice, and humanity within a flawed system. The movie particularly focuses on the challenges faced by underprivileged and minority communities in India.
