The film is about the struggles and survival of people in a small town called Maholi. The villagers are at the mercy of a cruel moneylender, Karamkali (Sudha Chandran). Lilaram (Paresh Rawal), is the only educated person in town. He earns his source of income by selling Malamaal Weekly lottery tickets. He's waiting for someone in the village to win a lottery so that he can make some money out of the commission.
One day a miracle happens. He realizes that one of the tickets he had sold has won a Rs. 1 crore bumper prize. As most of the villagers are illiterate, Lilaram thinks that he is the only one who has this information. But the problem is finding the winner out of the 105 villagers he has sold tickets to.
He decides to throw a party. He manages to convince his wife to pawn their last asset, his goat, who is regarded like a child by Lilaram's wife. The party is only for his 105 customers on the condition that they bring along their tickets as an invite to the celebrations. All turn up except one; Anthony (Malayalam actor Innocent), a drunkard. |
