In the bustling halls of a modest college, a quiet yet magnetic presence anchors the community. Lal, an orphan who has made the campus his lifelong home, is pursuing a third master’s degree simply to keep the loneliness at bay. With a gentle authority earned from years of watching classmates become teachers, he embodies the role of an older brother to the younger students, offering steady guidance while remaining firmly rooted in the rhythms of hostel life.

Around him swirl the energetic members of the student body. Chakkara and his tight‑knit crew inject vigor into every corner of campus, moving effortlessly between classes, clubs, and the rituals that bind the students together. New arrivals such as Jeevan, another orphan, and his sister Jyothimol quickly become part of Lal’s improvised family, while the free‑spirited poet Siddhan adds a touch of bohemian flair to their shared experiences. Their interactions create a lively tapestry of camaraderie, ambition, and the occasional mischief that defines college years.

The institution itself is guided by a trio of seasoned administrators—Principal Achen, Charachira Achan, and Fr. Kuttanad—whose combined influence shapes the daily order, discipline, and traditions that everyone respects. Their presence lends the campus a sense of stability, even as the students navigate the inevitable ebb and flow of relationships, personal dreams, and the looming arts festival that promises both celebration and subtle tension. Amid this backdrop, Gayathri, a former flame returning as an English teacher, re‑enters Lal’s world, hinting at unresolved feelings and new emotional currents.

Together, the characters inhabit a world where education is more than coursework; it is a crucible for belonging, kindness, and the quiet optimism that goodness, nurtured in the shared spaces of study and shared meals, can illuminate even the most uncertain paths.
