Kuttan Pillai (Nedumudi Venu) is a retired wrestler who loves boasting about the greatness of his career. Amminikutty (Lizy) is his daughter whom he wants to get married to a successful wrestler. Dilip Kumar (Mukesh) comes to their village as a postmaster and falls in love with Amminikutty. This outrages Kuttan Pillai who says Dilip has to win a wrestling match with his friend Dara Singh to get married to his daughter.
