Plot

Lachi is a 19-year-old hard-working girl who supported her family after her father's mysterious death. While she was travelling on a train, Mulla (Dileep) and his gang enter. They argue over silly issues, and he discovers a baby in a bag on the train. They try to find the baby's parents but fail. Mulla decides to adopt the child, and slowly Mulla and Lachi become lovers. However, CI Bharathan (Saiju Kurup), who actually murdered Lachi's father and also the baby's parents, wants a break-up between the two, to keep his secrets. Finally, Mulla and Bharathan get into a fight, and Mulla kills Bharathan. However, Lachi tells the police that she committed the murder and goes to prison. After five years, when she returns, she finds that Mulla has lost one leg in a fight, between the colony residents and the police. The colony residents had started a new business, and they all are having a good life now, and the only thing they had lacked is Lachi's presence. Lachi and Mulla finally unite.

This movie is believed to be inspired from an African movie: Tsotsi.
