Claws and Teeth

Directed by Srujan Belli

Ananya goes boar hunting with his cousin Giri and a mute plantation worker, Kaada. They accidentally kill a tiger and decide to smuggle its claws and skin. To avoid forest patrols on their way home, Anayya instructs Kaada to take a different route. However, Kaada is caught by forest guards. Ananya, to ensure his own safety, denies being with Kaada when Kaada’s son seeks help for his father's release. The story unfolds as Ananya struggles to retrieve the claws and faces the man he once looked down upon, leading to a reversal of power dynamics between the two.
