Thekkedathu Ramankutty (Dileep) is an event organizer. He meets Gauri (Navya Nair) while arranging the marriage for her sister Radhika (Jyothirmayi), daughter of a family friend Ambattu Madhavan Thampi (Lalu Alex). Radhika's fiancée does not turn up for the marriage. Ramankutty suggests that his brother Dr. Sivadas (Boban Alummoodan) will be ready for the marriage and it takes place very gracefully. In a hilarious turn of events, Ramankutty and Gauri realize their love for each other which rejoices their families and they start arrangements for their wedding. But on the day of their engagement, Radhika dies in a kitchen fire accident.
After a long time, the family fixes Ramankutty and Gauri's marriage. On the previous day of marriage Gauri gets an electric shock. Deeply disturbed by this, Thampi visits the astrologer Meppattu Thirumeni (Thilakan) to see the horoscope match, where he tells them that women married into the Thekkedathu family are fated to die young. He referred to the family's history. Ramankutty's grandmother died from her first pregnancy. Ramankutty's mother died shortly after giving birth to him. Ramankutty's eldest brother Achuthankutty's wife died just one month after their marriage, due to a snake bite. And now Thampi's daughter died as she was also married into Thekkedathu house. Thampi, scared for his only remaining daughter's life, requests Ramankutty to back out of the marriage without the knowledge of Gauri.
Saddened and yet wanting to do the right thing, Ramankutty calls off the wedding on the pretense of not being comfortable with Gauri's close relations with her cousin Unni (Kunchako Boban). Devastated by this allegation, Gauri backs out of the marriage, only to find the truth later. She runs out in search of Ramankutty and is involved in a road accident on the way. She is rushed to the hospital and while still battling for life, she wishes that Ramankutty tie the wedding knot before her operation. Ramankutty ties the knot, fearing the worst. Miraculously, Gauri comes out alive.
The story is told in flashback by an aged Ramankutty who bids farewell to his spellbound teenage audience at the temple which is filmed in a beautiful location and at the end he joins his wife Gauri in lighting the lamp.
