In the verdant valleys and bustling towns of Kerala, two venerable families dominate the lucrative world of liquor distribution. The Anakkattil dynasty has long held sway over the trade, while the ambitious Kadayadi clan seeks to carve out its own empire. This uneasy balance of power creates a charged atmosphere where business decisions echo like territorial disputes, and every handshake carries the weight of generations. The film immerses the viewer in a world where commerce, tradition, and the undercurrents of the illicit intertwine, setting a tone that is both gritty and richly local.

At the heart of this rivalry stands Anakkattil Chackochi, the charismatic heir who carries the legacy of his forebears with a blend of confidence and restless energy. A former captain and respected figure in the community, he navigates the pressures of family expectations while maintaining a laid‑back camaraderie with close friends such as Karimbanadan Sunny and Hussein. Their easy banter masks the seriousness of the business they oversee, hinting at a world where loyalty is both a weapon and a shield.

Beyond the boardrooms and back‑alleys, Gowri Parvathi—a woman of regal lineage—adds a softer, yet equally potent, dimension to Chackochi’s life. Their budding romance offers a glimpse of tenderness amid the relentless pursuit of power, suggesting that love and duty often walk a thin line in this tight‑knit community. The surrounding cast, from the diligent police officer John Maruthanayagam to the seasoned patriarch Eappachan, fleshes out a tapestry of characters whose personal ambitions ripple through the larger conflict.

As the story unfolds, the clash between the two families looms large, promising a tense interplay of strategy, pride, and hidden motives. The setting—swelling with Kerala’s lush landscapes and bustling market streets—serves as a vibrant backdrop for a drama that balances high‑stakes intrigue with the everyday rhythms of life. In this world, every decision reverberates, and the audience is left anticipating how Chackochi will steer his legacy through the swelling tides of rivalry.
