📖 Plot Summary – Greed is a God Too
The story of Kuberaa revolves around Aryan (played by Dhanush) — the mastermind of a financial scam who has become the “King of Coins” of the underground black economy. His empire is vast, but his past is darker.
Enters Ishita (Rashmika Mandanna), a fearless investigative journalist who reveals the truth about Aryan’s empire to the world. Meanwhile, Nagarjuna plays Ravi Varma, a retired CBI officer with personal history linked to Aryan’s crimes.
The twist? Jim Sarbh, as an enigmatic spiritual leader, manipulates the narrative, suggesting Aryan is a reincarnation of the ancient Kubera — God of Wealth.
The second half dives deeper into karma vs capitalism, where every character is tested morally. The climax is neither preachy nor violent, but metaphorical — showing “what happens when a man starts believing he’s a god.”
