'Punyalan Agarbathis' is a good-natured and appealing slice of life that is much craftier than it actually looks. It's sharp, sprightly, smelly and without any doubt, truckloads of dung fun.

 

The delicious self-critique that Ranjith Sankar's 'Punyalan Agarbathis' indulges in makes it an absorbing and well-made social satire, the darts of which hit the bull's eye. A jubilant film that is invariably entertaining, it makes use of liberal healthy doses of humor to drive home the points that it has in mind.

Joy Thakkolkkaran (Jayasurya) is running a business firm named Punyalan Agarbathis which deals with the production of incense sticks from elephant dung. Joy is married to Anu (Nyla Usha) and Greenu Sharma (Aju Varghese) is his assistant in all his activities. Joy's firm faces problems from the newly in-charge Temple Devaswom board committee as they refuse to supply elephant dung to him. Joy seeks help from advocate Sai (Rachana Narayanankutty), who helps him to win the case against the Devaswom. 

 

When everything was going fine, Joy jumps into another trouble when he had to collect elephant dung from temple on a harthal day sponsored by Revolutionary Independent Party. While returning back, he has to confront with harthal activists. The harthal supporters attack his firm, damage the vehicle and beat up Joy and others. Joy decides to fight against the party and files a case against them in the court. Will he succeed in the case or not? This forms the rest of the story.
