Thrissivaperoor Kliptham

David ‘Davis’ Pauly hails from Thrissur and navigates a fractured life after an arranged marriage collapses in a spectacular way: a bottle of alcohol, secretly sent by a so-called friend and hidden by him, breaks in the church and tears apart the ceremony. Davy’s aunt is quick to name trouble, and she points a finger at Joy Chembadan, a school classmate who has grown into a volatile adversary, suggesting he engineered the whole moment to ruin Davy’s prospects. The clash between these two men sets up the core tension of a story that threads through loyalty, pride, and the price of vanity.

From Pattikad, the naive but kind-hearted Girija ‘Giri’ Vallabhan becomes entangled with a rowdy gang after a market brawl with Joy’s henchmen. Giri’s path crosses with Ambiyettan, an emigrant guru who ushers him into Davy’s circle—comprising Bahuleyan, Philip Kannadakkaran, and Alahu—pulling him deeper into a world where images of respectability blur with real danger. The film uses this parallel thread to show how one misstep can pull innocent people into a web of greed, manipulation, and revenge, while exposing the fragile lines between friendship and enmity in a tight-knit community.

In a parallel arc, Bhageerathy “Baaghi” is portrayed as an honorable auto driver who tries to shield two neighboring girls from being drawn into prostitution at the insistence of Ayyappan, a cruel neighbor who treats their bodies as collateral. The girls’ father is desperate for money to pay for his wife’s operation, and the mother, overwhelmed by debt, is forced to consider dire options. This bitter moral dilemma underscores a larger commentary on desperation and the lengths people will go to protect their families, even as the surrounding world grows more dangerous and morally murky.

Conflict intensifies when Joy publicly humiliates Davy’s gang by arresting one of its members alongside his estranged wife, falsely accusing him of adultery. This affront hardens Davy’s resolve and fuels a desire for swift reckoning. In a bold, reckless bid to force Nileena Mehndi to honor a deal with Joy, Davy’s crew abducts Nilina Mehndi’s associate, hoping to leverage Nileena’s involvement. Nileena’s contract is delicate and expensive to unwind, and the gang learns a painful lesson about leverage and leverage’s limits when the intermediaries reveal that a one-night stand for ten lakh is the most negotiable option left on the table.

As stakes escalate, the gang doubles down on deceit to raise funds and reclaim control. They uncover a key truth through Kozhikkaran Cheru, a local businessman and gambler who runs a casino: the operative known as Porinju—Mansoor—was not merely a pawn but someone who used Cheru’s name and resources before turning the situation against them. The revelation that Porinju couldn’t locate the money only intensifies the sense of betrayal and spirals into a chase where trust is scarce and every move is a calculated risk.

When the truth finally lands, Baaghi confesses that she took the money to pay for the girls’ father’s operation. She offers a stark, morally complex choice: sleep with one of them for a single night in exchange for the money. The men reject the offer, having learned a hard-won lesson about greed and the consequences it breeds. The film uses this moment to pivot toward a tempered sense of accountability, showing how even those who appear strongest can be moved by genuine concern for family and community.

In the end, reconciliation arrives in unexpected ways. Davy is reunited with his high school crush, an arc driven by Joy’s newfound understanding of his own mistakes and willingness to heal rather than humiliate. The closing moments also hint at a tender future for Giri and Baaghi, suggesting that their rough journey might someone into a quiet, hopeful connection. The movie leaves audiences with a sense that love and loyalty can endure even when pride and temptation threaten to pull everyone apart.
