The central hook of Dawshom Awbotaar is its unique narrative structure. The film follows a specialized Kolkata Police task force as they hunt a serial killer who is styling his murders after the Dashavatara —the ten avatars of Lord Vishnu (Matsya, Kurma, Varaha, Narasimha, Vamana, Parashurama, Rama, Balarama, Krishna, and Kalki).
The narrative tries to answer: If Vishnu descends to Earth to restore balance (Dharmasthapana), what happens when a mortal man perverts that divine template into a blueprint for vengeance?
