Plot
Dominic is the owner of an antique shop in Cochin. His family consists of his wife Maria, daughter Andrea, and son Jude. Though Jude is a mathematical genius and an oceanography enthusiast, he has poor social skills and lacks maturity for his age. He has no friends and always gets on the wrong side with his father. Jude also gets fired from his job and is forced by his father to assist him at his antique shop.
One day Dominic gets a phone call from Goa that his paternal aunt Olivia has died in an accident and all her properties are now inherited by himself and his son Jude. Dominic, Maria, and Jude travel to Goa for the funeral and the property settlement while Andrea remains in Cochin to attend her exams and take care of Dominic's business. At Goa, they meet Dr.Sebastian and his daughter Crystal, the tenants of the outhouse in the late aunt's bungalow. Crystal runs a beachside cafe and is also part of a music band. Dominic is often irritated by Sebastian's jolly good friendly nature and their late-night music rehearsals and vows to evict them as soon as possible, even though Sebastian has a valid lease agreement. Dominic keeps sending Jude as a messenger to Sebastian's house to pass on his new house rules. Sebastian, Crystal, and Jude get into little tiffs initially but slowly they warm up to each other and become friends. Sebastian, who is a psychologist, notices Jude's obsession with numbers, his exceptional mathematical skills, his social awkwardness and concludes that Jude has autism spectrum disorder.
