Plot

Kumara (played by Dasun) works as an orderly at a hospital, a job that gives him the opportunity to watch the bodies of young women that are brought to the hospital's morgue. One day he is stunned when the body of a beautiful and desirable actress, Tharuka Wijesinghe (played by Chamathka) arrives. Kumara cannot resist taking a picture. Meanwhile, two of his friends Ruwan (played by Isuru) and Namal (played by Pubudu) arrives to the hospital for having a drink with Kumara. Then Kumara showed the photo of Tharuka and they went morgue to view Tharuka's nude body.

Ruwan asked if it is possible to rape a corpse and Kumara replies that saliva must be used for lubrication. When asked whether he knows this from past experience, Kumara confesses he has raped the corpse of a teen girl and showed photos. Ruwan soon decides that he wants to rape Tharuka's corpse and begins raping it, prompting Kumara to suggest that he take a turn after Ruwan. Namal is disgusted when they suggest he takes a turn and refuses. During Kumara's act of necrophilia, Tharuka suddenly returns to life and opens her eyes. She cannot move, but her eyes are open in terror. Kumara screams when he realizes this and the others come into the room.

The men are then faced with two choices: They can either report Tharuka's revival and face rape charges, as there was no way Tharuka could have consented to sex, or they can murder her and cover up their crimes. While Kumara and Ruwan both want to hide their crime, Namal pushes for them to save Tharuka and take responsibility for what they have done. The three men argue and Ruwan unintentionally kills Namal. Without Namal to stop them, Ruwan is set on killing Tharuka. Ruwan convinces Kumara that he would be an accessory to the murder of Namal, and that there is no way Tharuka would stay silent if she is left alive.

They decide to smother her with bunched up sheets so no mark is left on her body. While Ruwan disposes of the evidence, Kumara cleans Tharuka's body and covers her in a white sheet. As he is about to leave, Kumara tells Tharuka to pretend she is dead and it is revealed that he faked the murder. Ruwan returns and they both leave the room. As they are about to get on the elevator, Ruwan checks his wallet and realizes he forgot his card in the morgue. Kumara unsuccessfully tries to convince him to leave rather than get his card, saying he will pick it up the next day however Ruwan opens the door to see Tharuka putting on a hospital wear.

Ruwan furiously starts to punish Kumara, accusing him of conspiring to blame all of it on him. He finally stops, announcing that he does not care anymore if Kumara wants to go to jail. Tharuka sneaks up behind him and stabs him twice. He bleeds to death from the wound in his neck. Meanwhile, Kumara cries, saying that Ruwan had already said he would leave. Silent, Tharuka repeatedly stabs Kumara. Tharuka is then seen staring off with tears in her eyes and blood spatter on her face.
