     12Popular social satire by the leading Malayalam 
     13genre practitioners addressing political parties 
     14and slogan-shouting activists. Having retired as 
     15a stationmaster in Tamil Nadu, the hero 
     16(Thilakan) returns to Kerala after 30 years to 
     17find his two unemployed sons (Srinivasan and 
     18Jayaram) have become full-time hangers-on in 
     19opposing political parties, asserting their 
     20strident political rhetoric both in and out of the 
     21house. The two sons try in vain to put ‘service 
     22before self’ until their harassed father, on the 
     23verge of ruin, makes them see sense. The 
     24positive contrast is provided by the enterprising 
     25and prudent agricultural officer (Siddique) who 
     26marries their sister and represents the film’s 
     27plea on behalf of apolitical, small businesses. 
     28The typically hilarious dialogue by Srinivasan 
     29bolsters this message.
