Plot
The story introduces Radha Mani, a highly skilled mason living in a small town in Kerala. Despite his talent, his addiction overshadows his reputation, causing problems with clients and his personal life.
Radha’s family, consisting of his wife and teenage daughter, suffers due to his irresponsible behavior. His wife, a strong and determined woman, constantly urges him to quit drinking, but Radha dismisses her pleas, always making empty promises to change.
His addiction leads to frequent conflicts, and his daughter, ashamed of her father’s reputation, distances herself from him.
One day, Radha takes on an important construction project that could restore his standing in the community. However, his drinking gets in the way, and he ends up making a crucial mistake on-site. This leads to an accident. The client is furious over the mishap and refuses to pay him. This makes Radha’s already precarious financial situation worsen.
His family and friends stage an intervention, forcing him into a rehabilitation center against his will. At the rehab center, Radha is rebellious at first, refusing to acknowledge his problem. He believes he is in control of his drinking and sees himself as the victim.
Diverse individuals battling their demons fill the center, adding humor and depth to the story. As days pass, Radha starts bonding with other patients, hearing their heartbreaking yet often comical stories. A no-nonsense counselor challenges him.
He pushes him to confront his past and the root of his addiction. Through a mix of emotional setbacks and small victories, Radha starts to realize the impact of his actions on his loved ones.
