Garudan Movie Synopsis
Garudan is the story of three best friends Karuna, Sokkan and Aadhi. Sokkan is extremely loyal to Karuna and is basically like a brother to Karuna. Meanwhile, Karuna and Aadhi bonded over a trauma they both shared. Sokkan became friends with Aadhi but never stopped being less of a friend to Karuna.
The point of breakage in Karuna and Daddy’s friendship happened when a greedy minister wanted to get hold of the temple land under Karuna’s grandmother’s control. She also agrees to sell the temple land but Aadhi is against Karuna’s grandmother’s decision. Karuna does not mind his grandmother’s decision and agrees with her.
Now Karuna and Aadhi don’t see eye to eye and Sokkan is trapped between them. The entire story is told through the redesigning letter of a cop.
There are multiple subplots, like why the cop wants to resign, what is in it for Sokkan, and whether he is loyal to Karuna just because he is a really good friend; a couple who is trying to start their family but are unable to do so; an unplanned pregnancy; and a slow-burning love story.
