Shyam Mohanlal, is a silver tongued but essentially likeable weasel. Hes a flirt, engaged to Sreekutty Menaka. He doesnt have much luck with women, or his career, but when a bunch of opportunists seem to pop into his life with all kinds of dreamy offers, he bites. Suddenly, he finds himself stirring an ambitious fiancee soup, dating three air hostesses introduced to him by Lambodharan Soman, and driving cars he doesnt own with the help of his friend, driver Kuttappan Maniyanpilla Raju. He rises to the occasion admirably. Even as he meticulously takes down flight schedules and itinerary details, he finds himself flummoxed on many a turn, where he lies magnificently through his teeth. Soon, hes in the zone, and a complete player, addicted to the thrills of infidelity.And everyone is a coconspirator. Mukesh is Anil, a smarmy stud with an exuberant lack of scruples. While managing to wangle his way to a promotion, a Mumbai trip, he looks up to Shyam, despite the obvious rivalry, Anil decides to move in as acolyte. Shyam is a pro, and wants Anil out of his life, but has to begrudgingly admit that hes a huge help with the ladies. Anil might act unflappable with others around, but grovels in front of Shyam to let him stay. Beneath the egos and competition, however, its pretty visible that these two like each other. ........
