Throw an egg at Raman Venkat Iyer, he'll pretend that a bird dropped it. Ask him how to cope with stress, he'll tell you, "Get stoned." His moral code is flexible, the sole objective being his peace.
He doesn't feel the need to earn his own money - why bother when his dad's done it for him? Raman retires at 27 to pursue his idea of bliss - getting high on pot, perfecting the art of sitting still while moving just his ears (his only talent) and watching life go by.
It's all going fine for Raman till a rare visit to the temple sparks off a series of events that threaten Raman's world...
