Description: In the 2016 film *Iru Mugan*, the plot follows a Malaysian man who suddenly becomes violent and kills several Indian officers at the Indian Embassy in Kuala Lumpur within five minutes. After the incident, he collapses, revealing a tattoo of a love symbol on the back of his neck. This leads to an investigation by the Research and Analysis Wing (RAW), with the suspect’s identity unknown to everyone except Akhilan Vinod, a suspended RAW agent whose wife, Meera George, was killed by the same man four years prior. RAW chief Malik recruits Akhilan to assist in the case. Analyzing the footage, Akhilan deduces that the attacker used a mysterious performance-enhancing drug and decides to investigate further in Malaysia. Since Akhilan is suspended, Malik assigns him as a deputy to junior agent Aayushi, who is officially handling the case, and the two travel to Kuala Lumpur.
In Kuala Lumpur, Akhilan and Aayushi discover that the drug is inhaled through an asthma inhaler. Their investigation leads them to Peter, a scientist working for the suspect named Love. Peter reveals that the drug, called *Speed*, grants extraordinary strength for five minutes before causing the user to collapse. If inhaled again shortly after, it leads to a fatal heart attack. Peter also informs them that a shipment of *Speed* inhalers is being sent to Love. Akhilan and Aayushi pursue the shipment, but the driver inhales *Speed* and overpowers them, taking them to Love’s hideout.
