It has been a creative and self innovating journey and will hopefully be appreciated and understood by movie lovers all over the globe, says the director. In the film Mammootty plays the title role while Padmapriya, Kamalini and Meena Kumari play female leads. The film�s music has been composed by Isaac Thomas.

Three women turn up, each claiming it as �her� Kutty Srank. One is a wealthy woman who wants to become a Buddhist nun. The second is a woman who acts in a traditional Christian play with Kutty Srank and is later accused of murder. The third is a gentle, mute woman who, it appears, is carrying Kutty Srank�s baby.
