fondly called S.R.K. by his friends. SRK is a graduate in Economics
and a schoolteacher in Kerala. He lives with his wife, Vidya
(Rituparna Sengupta) and two young daughters. SRK always feels that
his meagre job is keeping him away from a grand ambitious life in the
big city.

He quits his job to pursue other career avenues but fails at all. His
wife Vidya struggles to keep their household running as SRK flounders
more than he earns. Both Vidya's and SRK's fathers, who are
ex-servicemen, decided to mend SRK's ways. They decided to send him
on a religious voyage to Sabrimala to help realise his responsibilities.

But, their plan backfires as SRK returns reformed but becomes
obsessed with the idea of becoming a sanyasi. He takes to the life of
hermit and wanders about aimlessly. A lonesome Vidya decides to work
her way out of troubles and starts sewing clothes for contracts.
