A story of mistaken identity: an innocuous
good guy (Jayaram) is mistaken for a gangster
boss who may well have been his twin brother.
Most Western versions of this plot e.g. featuring
Jerry Lewis or Fernandel, explore the
situation’s comic potential. However,
Padmarajan sees the plot as a psychological
drama.
