==Plot==<br />
Avittam Thirunal Narayana Varma (Narendra Prasad), who is a former leader and a doting grandfather had a daughter named Malavika Thampuratti (Ambika), who walked out of the palace after falling for Abdul Rahman (Captain Raju). He always clashed with his brothers. Sulaiman (Dileep), the son of Abdul Rahman and Malavika Thampuratti, was nurtured in Carnatic classical music by his mother. His opponent in college, Unnikrishnan (Sudheesh) who is the son of a dead Brahmin priest is also good at singing.<br />
<br />
Unnikrishnan wins a musical competition at college which makes him sing at the famous Chembai Sangeethotsavam, but Sulaiman, in a mistake of identities, finally makes it to the musical gala. He becomes so famous among the people due to his singing that the viewers start to appreciate him a lot.<br />
<br />
Sulaiman is forced to go to his grandfather's place to join a religious function. But there Gopika (granddaughter) falls for Sulaiman instead of Unnikrishnan. In the end, we see that history repeats itself. Will the palace will get a sultan or not? This forms the remaining story of the film.<br />
