Plot

[edit]

Anoop Chandran is a famous writer and award winner. Prone to seeing future events that turn out to be real, Anoop one day sees his own death in a trance. He decides to write one final novel before death. He has a wife, Meera, who never understands the writer in him. At the same time, he is in love with dancer Gatha, with whom he shares a live-in relationship. Anoop always tells Gatha about Sathyabhama, who was his lover in college. Excited about hearing Sathyabhama aka Bhama, Gatha wants to locate Bhama and goes to Anoop's tharavadu (ancestral house) with him. From there, they go to Bhama's birthplace, Vattakkulam, which incidentally is the birthplace of Gatha's parents as well. They return, unsuccessful in finding Bhama. Gatha goes to Kolkata for her dance performances while Anoop returns to Kerala. Three months later, Gatha gets a call from Anoop. She is shocked to hear that there was no one named Bhama, and she was an imaginary character created by Anoop for his final novel. Anoop was developing Bhama's story through Gatha. He tells Gatha that he sent the novel to her and she has the right to give it a title and publish it. He also tells her that he is about to reach the end of his life, which he realised some time back. In the final scene, Anoop is seen heading to some remote destination in the snow-clad mountains, to embrace his death.
