Description: Aadhi, a 2018 film, tells the story of a young man aspiring to become a music director in the cinema industry while pursuing his passion for parkour. Despite his father Mohan Varma’s doubts about his musical career, preferring he focus on business, Aadhi receives unwavering support from his mother Rosy, except for his parkour activities. Determined to achieve his dreams, Aadhi strives for a breakthrough. One day, Mohan sends him to Bangalore to retrieve a car for his friend Roy, who is returning from an overseas trip.
In Bangalore, Aadhi visits a nightclub frequented by prominent figures in the music industry, hoping to impress them with his talent. During his performance, he encounters his friend Anjana, who is there with her boss’s son and nephew, Jayakrishnan. Jealous of Aadhi’s interaction with Anjana, Jayakrishnan instigates a confrontation. The situation escalates, resulting in Jayakrishnan accidentally causing the boss’s son to fall to his death.
The victim is the son of Narayana Reddy, a powerful and influential figure in Bangalore. Fearing the consequences, Jayakrishnan frames Aadhi for the incident and reports it to Reddy, who vows revenge. Using his influence, Reddy labels the death as accidental to avoid police involvement and launches a covert manhunt for Aadhi, aided by a security camera image from the club.
Reddy tracks the car Aadhi used and traces his location along the Bangalore-Mysore road, sending his men to capture him. However, Aadhi uses his parkour skills to evade capture, eventually finding refuge with a man named Sharath, who informs him about the bounty on his head. The film unfolds as Aadhi navigates danger and seeks to clear his name.
