Children’s adventure story adapting the ‘kids
on vacation’ plot still associated amongst
Indian children with Enid Blyton and Margaret
Bhatty. Four school children trail a gang of
museum thieves. On the way, they take part in
bicycle chases, befriend a runaway delinquent
and have a lavish lunch paid for by Malayalam
superstar Mohanlal, in a brief guest
appearance. In the end the kids overwhelm the
gangsters’ hideout and fight it out with cricket
balls and a little help from their beloved Manu
Uncle (Mammootty), a scientist and secret
agent. Suresh Gopi, as the bungling police
chief, dominates the climax.
