Plot Overview
The story revolves around a gripping mystery that begins with the disappearance of Manu, the son of a prominent minister, after he leaves college. Officer Rudra is assigned to investigate the case and uncovers a bizarre twist: Manu and his girlfriend, Katyayani, were last seen traveling on a BMTC bus that was decommissioned 25 years ago due to a tragic accident. The chilling question arises—how did the bus reappear, and where is Manu?
The film draws inspiration from the urban legend of Pan Am Flight 914, a mysterious aircraft that reportedly vanished in 1955 and reappeared decades later. This intriguing premise is mirrored in the haunting story of the “17A Kaveri Express” bus, which becomes the central element of the narrative.
Production Highlights
The movie was shot extensively in Mysore and Bangalore, with key sequences, including the climax, filmed at the historic HMT Limited factory premises. The 70-day shooting schedule ensured that the film captured the perfect mix of suspense and visual grandeur.
