It was produced by Antony Perumbavoor under the company Aashirvad Cinemas.

Moidukutty Haji returns to his village after marrying for third time. His new wife Aamina is young and beautiful. His other two wives Fathima and Maimuna are really unhappy to see this, but they have no other choice other than to accept it. Aamina was in love in with Abdu. Abdu and Usman enters the village and comes to Moidukutty Haji’s house to sell bangles.
Abdu sees Aamina and tries various tricks in order to get into Moidukutty Haji’s house, but Moidukutty Haji drives them away.
