It starsMeera Jasmine,Narain,Jayasurya,Indrajith Sukumaran,Roma Asrani,Samvrutha Sunil,Radhika andAnoop Chandran in the title lead roles. The score and soundtrack is composed byBijibal. The story of the film revolves around a group of youngsters working in an IT park.[1]
Sidharth and his wife Mumthaz are two highly paid IT professionals trying to overcome the crisis of their marriage. They have many friends, such as Abhilash, Charulatha, Manikunju, Rose Mary, Partha Saradhi and Kalyani. They visit Sidharthan's flat to unwind after work and consider their home an escape from work stress. Some unusual things happen which change their lives.[2]
Abhilash and Charu argue and fight. After these simple fights, they go to the home of Sidhu and Mummu to chill out. In her life, Charu was surrounded only by her father since the age of 5. A wedding meet between the families of Abhi and Charu causes Charu's father to start drinking again after 15 years. This causes a major break up between Charu and Abhi. On a trip toChennai for Mani's and Rose's marriage and for Abhi's marriage with his father's friend's daughter, Charu runs away toBangalore and later moves abroad.
The story returns from flashback when Charu leaves forBangalore. The flashback started when Charu read an email from Kalyani informing about her marriage. Charu attends the marriage, where she meets the old members of her "Minnaminnikootam". However, none of them shows her any warmth or friendliness. She returns to the airport and Abhi comes and sits beside her. He invites her to go for a drive and takes her to Sidhu's house where she is emotionally greeted by her friends and receives a surprising message: Abhi was never going to marry anyone else. He was planning on marrying Charu, even if he didn't have her permission. Finally, friends unite and Abhi and Charu decide to get married.
