The movie has the director as the central character Raju, who falls to paranoia and depression following the death of his mother. The younger son of a wealthy family, the over caring attitudes of his family members and his brother Viswam (Gishnu Raghavan) constantly reminds him of his mental abrasions, which forces him to react differently towards events. Now married to his childhood sweetheart Ashwathy (Rima) the daughter of the former driver of the household, the couple with their compassion towards fellow beings and nature and selfless love tries to live a life of their own creating much indifference to the rest of the society, who are always after money and business. Even after falling to trauma that demands psychiatric help, Aswathy is determined to get Raju back to life with her love.

Though there are only a very few characters , and the movie is mostly woven around the bonding between  Raju and Ashwathy and how they unite in grief  , not once do you feel that the narrative tends to get talk-heavy or the film looks cramped thanks to the smooth handling of the delicate subject. With truly special and career best performances from Rima and Siddharth with the right doses of histrionics, tautness and  anguish, the movie works mainly due to their on-screen chemistry and deftly narrated sequences and dialogues written by Santhosh Echikkanam. The repackaging and placement is near perfect and the emotional but disturbing journey equally engaging.
