The music was composed by Suresh Peters and S.P. Venkatesh, the former composing the songs making his debut as a film composer and the latter composing the score. The film was released as a grand Onam release on the day of Thiruvonam.

Unni (Dileep) has many debts and no way to repay them. He decides to commit suicide so that his parents can use the insurance money to repay the debts, but he is saved by a fisherman named Gangadharan (Cochin Haneefa) and his employee Ramanan (Harisree Ashokan). When they notice Unni drowning, Unni pretends to be deaf and mute so that they will not understand the truth.
