Plot

Jilebi is a story about confrontation between the middle aged Sreekuttan and his city-bred nephew and niece. Sreekuttan is a villager whose life is confined to his farm and crops. Far away in Dubai, trouble brews for him in the form of his nephew and niece. From their first meeting, it becomes evident that both Sreekuttan and the children are uncomfortable with the rustic setting. The only thing holding them down are their roots to the place. The tech-savvy kids are determined to make everyone around them miserable. Soon enough their vacation comes to a close and they leave their family home with Sreekuttan in charge to start school in Kodaikanal. The road trip to their new school leads to surprises - some sour, some sweet for both alike. A bond develops between Sreekuttan and the children. At school they meet Shilpa - the children's mother. She angrily lambasts Sreekuttan and blames his village farming attitude and lack of responsibility for being late for admissions. Sreekuttan puts Shilpa in her place for her snobbish attitude and reminds her money does not make relationships change their inherent values. Later, understanding her mistake Shilpa lets her children attend school near the family house and flies back from Dubai to Thrissur.
