Bhaskaran, however, hates the idea. The film was released in India on 8 November 2019. It received critical acclaim and was one of the commercially successful Malayalam films released in the year. The movie won three Kerala State Film Awards including Best Actor award for Suraj. Plot Bhaskaran Poduval (Suraj Venjaramoodu) is a stubborn old man who is very reluctant to get accustomed to any new-age technology and is therefore seen as a 'boomer' by some of the younger men in town. He resides in Payyanur with his son Subramanian alias Chuppan (Soubin Shahir), a mechanical engineer. He is first seen at the Bali ceremony of his friend Kunjappan, who is shown to be a rather short man. As Kunjappan's son Vinu is in the middle of performing the ritual, Bhaskaran questions some aspects of the ritual, eventually infuriating Vinu, who storms off in a rage. Bhaskaran wants his son to be by his side during his last days, and that is why he prohibits his son from applying for any job, and to refuse any job offer he receives. Subramanian, in frustration, demands on going to Russia, as he had got a job in a Japanese Robotics firm there. This causes an argument between the father and son, which ends in Subramanian leaving for Russia.
