Gopalakrishnan, a perfect gentleman, wants to get married as soon as possible. His mother, 'Bullet' Pushpa, only wants an extremely wealthy daughter-in-law, so she rejects every marriage proposal. While Bama hates the kind of rich grooms her father brings for her whose only qualification is that they are rich.
One day, Bama, having decided to marry the first bachelor she sees, sees Gopalakrishnan at the bus stop and she falls in love at first sight with him. Finally, after much effort from her end, they fall in love and get married in a police station without their parents' permission.
After the marriage, 'Bullet' Pushpa and Bama often quarrel over small matters. Bama hates lies, she shuns anyone who lies to her four times.

In order to bring the feel of an feature film, Sekhar wrote seventy nine scenes unlike the play which had only fifteen scenes and increased the length of songs and fight sequences.[3] The film marked the directorial debut of Sekhar. The filming was completed in 30 days.[4]
