Ambujakshan ([[Sreenivasan]]) at long last gets to meet a director ([[Manoj K Jayan]]) and a producer ([[Sunil Sukhada]]) to narrate his story 'Chirakodinja Kinavukal', which he hopes would finally be made into a film. He declares that he has made a few changes to the script to meet the requirements of the new gen cinema, though the hero of his tale, Thayyalkkaran ([[Kunchacko Boban]]) and his heroine Sumathi ([[Rima Kallingal]]) have not changed.
As per Ambujakshan’s story, Sumathi falls in love with a local tailor, Thayyalkkaran. Virakuvettukaran ([[Joy Mathew]]), her father, a rich woodcutter, is against this relationship and decides to marry her off to an NRI ([[Kunchacko Boban]] in a [[dual role]]).
