[1] The story revolves around a short tempered and domineering house owner, Gopalakrishna Panikkar, who is struggling with debt incurred during the wedding of his two sisters.

The only way Gopalakrishnan can escape from certain bankruptcy is to sell the property he owns in the city and use the proceeds to settle his debts.

Much hilarity ensues later and Meera at last, on knowing about the extent of Gopalakrishnan's problems, vacates the house without reservations and leaves.

The film was shot in and around a house named "Chakyathu" situated near Mahatma Gandhi Road in Kochi, Kerala.
