Plot Rachana, an intern with The Times of India, is working on an article on the incidents at a flyover. She also has a crush on the crime reporter Aditya, whose help she seeks for research material on accidents on the flyover. She finds that each day some motorists move the concrete blocks that partition the road just to take a quick U-turn and avoid traffic. They do not move the blocks back and are left to lie randomly on the road, leading to many accidents. A homeless man sitting on the flyover notes down the vehicle numbers of commuters who violate the rule to take the U-turn and gives the list to Rachana. She obtains the details of the culprits using her contact in the traffic department, with the intention of confronting them for their "shortcut" and writing an article for the paper. Her attempt to meet the first person on the list goes in vain. Later that day, the police arrest Rachana and accuse her of killing the same person she wanted to meet. She is shocked and tells her side of the story. Though the senior police officer rejects it, sub-inspector Pradeep Nayak finds it believable and does some investigation. It is revealed that all the people whom Rachana has on her list have committed suicide. The police also noticed that they have committed suicide the same day they took the wrong "U-turn". Rachana
