The story is set in a village around the Mattannur-Iritty area of Kannur, Kerala. Kunjananthan (Mammootty) manages a provision store in the village. Resigned to an unhappy marriage, the shop is the centre of his existence. The owner of the building pleads with him to vacate the shop so that he may settle his debts, but Kunjananthan does not relent. Eviction, however, seems unavoidable when the government tries to acquire land for a road development project. Kunjanthan's travails to retain the shop form the second half of the film.
