Keshu, the Guardian of this house) is a 2021 Indian malayalam comedy drama film directed by Nadirshah.

The film was released on 31 December 2021 through Disney+ Hotstar in four languages and received mixed to positive reviews from critics and audience.

The whole family, including Keshu's cunning brothers-in-law, Rajendran, Gopi and Vijayan Pillai plans to go Rameswaram as a trip where they will do the last rites.

Keshu's daughter Usha calls a tourist bus upon her boyfriend Vivek's careoff and they leave for the trip happily.

Keshu calls Ganapathi, the lottery agent and Kunjikrishnan's brother inside to give the ticket.

Everyone overhears it and the police tells Keshu and Ganapathi to call few people and search the house.

During the search, Keshu finds a photo of him with a young girl Leeela, his ex-girlfriend who ran away with a photographer and recollects his past.

When Rathnam sees the photo, she thinks that Keshu hid the lottery ticket for her and to live happily with her.

Umesh tells her a doubt that he might have wrote a love letter in the lottery ticket and sent to a girl who is their neighbour.

She gets angry and hits her daughter, which Umesh witnesses and Keshu tells him that because of him, his life has a problem like this.

When she sees the girl's mother hitting her, she thinks that Keshu told them about his affair with Leela.

He tells Umesh to make a paper rocket and throw it to the same place where he threw the lottery ticket to the girl.

A group of people climbs and checks the tree for the lottery ticket and finds many letters written by Umesh and the girl's mother misunderstands and slaps her.

Ganapathi tells Keshu that his neighbour and ex-goon Biju might have stolen the lottery ticket and hidden it somewhere.

In a fit of rage, Keshu pushes Rathnam to the ground, where she hits her head and becomes unconscious.

Usha tells him that Rathnam lost her speaking ability due to the shock when he pushed her.

On the train, Ganapathi calls him and tells he needs money for all requirements he made when Keshu won the lottery otherwise he will die.

She is now believing that Keshu will take the money and live with Leela to which she won't allow and creates a big scene.
