Plot

The film is about a cinema tale, narrated by Unni Mukundan to a famous director David Paul. Unni is a college professor but he dreams to become a scriptwriter in films. Unni first gets rejected quite harshly, but then David regrets his actions and calls him back, asking for him to narrate the story.

Unni narrates the story of Amal from Payyannur. Amal's love life with Sithara met with an unexpected ending as she accepted a marriage proposal. He decides to go to Ernakulam for a job so that he can stay away from his past. He shares a house with V. P. Vipeesh aka Rahul, Vinu and Narayanankutty aka Nakkutty.

The movie shows the things that happen in Amal's life during that phase where he meets Anu a medical student and eventually falls in love with her. Anu reciprocates his feelings as she is saved by Amal when a person tries to abuse her. They decide to get married leaving Sithara fuming in jealousy. The director loves the story and accepts to make the film. The climax shows that Unni was narrating his own life story.
