Plot

Ivar is an action movie about the underworld, goons, and the mafia. Pambu Jose is a dreaded underworld don, and his rival is Minnal Thankan. Jose's close aide is Ninja Hakkim and gun moll is Rita, along with the blind Vinayakan. Raghava Menon, a police officer infiltrates the gang and gains Jose's confidence like Hakkim. No one knows that Menon's goal is to wipe out the mafia.

Menon works in tandem with DGP S.K. Nair (Janardhanan) whose daughter, Nandini (Bhavana), is in love with Menon. Menon uses the underworld rivalry and gathers information on police informers and those on the take to create havoc in mafia camps.
