However, his life takes a turn when Annie discovers Joseph’s hidden past as Vijay Kumar, a former police officer. He warns her to keep his identity a secret from Nivi.
Years earlier, Vijay was an honest DCP in Chennai who investigated a rape case involving an IT employee named Raji. He uncovered that the perpetrator was Ashwin, the son of a corrupt minister, Vanamaamalai. Vijay took justice into his own hands, killing Ashwin and publicly declaring his actions to Vanamaamalai, who vowed revenge.
Vijay later married Mithra, a medical student, and they lived happily until tragedy struck. Vanamaamalai and his gang attacked Vijay’s home, killing Mithra and his mother. They also attempted to drown Nivi, but Mithra saved her before dying. Devastated, Vijay faked his death, changed his identity to Joseph Kuruvilla, and moved to Kerala with Nivi to protect her.
Years later, Nivi faces danger again when her school bus crashes into Kerala’s backwaters. Joseph, with the help of Annie and Rajendran, rescues the children. The story highlights Joseph’s struggle to shield his daughter while confronting the shadows of his past.
