Movie in short:Boss is a money lender and Prathapa Varma has duped him avoiding to repay the money he owes. Despite being cautioned many tines from Boss and his deputies Prathapa Varma, with the help of his police commissioner friend, continues to upset the Boss. And the clash begins.
Producer Prathapa Varma (Kalabhavan Shajohn) in discussions with the director about the extended schedule of the movie, receives a call from Boss. He evades it and then enters Ganapathy (Hareesh Kanaran) with a warning to not skip Boss’ call. But, Prathapa Varma continues to avoid the call while the set is prepared to take the hero’s entry shot of the prathap’s new movie, and then, you witness the entry of the real ‘hero’ of the film thumping his way punching everybody on his way.
The story raises a question why is Boss so interested in the battle with Prathapa Varma? Is there a story inside the story?
Watch the movie and find out. It is a movie cut for mammokka fans all the way.
