Karuppu imagines what happens when divine justice descends into a broken court: the guardian deity Vettai Karuppu takes the guise of a lawyer to fight a corrupt legal system that is exploiting a young girl awaiting a liver transplant. It signals a taste for stories where supernatural champions wield formal authority against institutional rot, where myth and moral outrage fuse, and where the powerless find an unexpected defender willing to beat the system at its own game.
