When Ugrasen, the domineering patriarch of a family, drops dead at No. 22 Sainik
Farms, everybody in the household is horrified and confused. While his three sons
and wife reel under the shock, his fourteen-year-old niece Anjali knows something
is amiss. She sets out to unravel the truth. Knocking on private investigator
Ganapati Iyer?s door is her first smart move.
It?s now up to Ganapati and his north Indian namesake, Vinayak, to get to
the bottom of the mystery. The collaboration between the two is an odd and
interesting one, with Vinayak perpetually wanting to upgrade Ganapati?s skills
with the ladies and the gifted south Indian quoting couplets from the Kural for
Vinayak?s benefit.
The real question is: Will this improbable duo succeed in exposing the
murderer?
