The story of Nirnayam revolves around a woman named Geetha (Amala Akkineni), who is a victim of domestic violence. Her husband Raja (Murali Mohan) is an abusive alcoholic who frequently physically and mentally tortures her. One day, as Raja is about to kill Geetha, she manages to escape and seeks refuge in a police station. She meets a kind-hearted police officer named Vishnu (Nagarjuna), who offers to help her.

As Vishnu tries to help Geetha, he realizes that the law can only do so much, and that it is up to him to protect her from Raja's wrath. The rest of the movie deals with Vishnu's attempts to keep Geetha safe, while at the same time dealing with his own personal demons.
