If he does anything, it is according to the laws of astrology, and he can not make a strong decision of his own as he mistrusts everything. His life takes a turn when an astrologer informs him that he will soon meet death. He panics and tries to do everything required for his wife Sumangala and daughter before he dies.[3]

Reception

edit

A critic from Nowrunning wrote that "There is nothing new in this Dileep starrer. It's just another mandatory comedy where Dileep tries the same things which we have seen thousand times".[5] A critic from Chithram wrote that "On the whole unless Dileep pulls up his socks, his comedy act will turn out to be a great tragedy".[6]
