Plot

Gauthaman (Neeraj Madhav) narrates his story of learning driving and how he handled the difficulties that came across his life.

The movie starts with young Gauthaman rotating the wheel of a bicycle as he is very much interested in vehicles. Gauthaman's grandmother whom he lovingly calls Muthassi (Valsala Menon) saw him most of the time spending with the toy cars and his father's cycle. Gauthaman's father Ramachandran (Renji Panicker) is a very kind and compassionate person who is ready to fulfil all the wishes of his son. But Muthassi is the only one who encourages Gauthaman to take initiative to drive vehicles. As a result his confidence level raise. They move from their village to Cochin City.

Years passed. On Gauthaman's 18th birthday, he spends most of the time arguing with his grandmother on simple issues but both share a strong bond. Muthassi took classes for neighbouring children based on Puraanam (myth). Gauthaman is always against her old beliefs. Ramachandran compels him to take a driving license and hearing this Gauthaman gets excited at the top level as it was his dream for years. Shibu Ashaan (Biju Sopanam) is assigned to teach him driving. He is a strict as well as a funny teacher. Gauthaman finds a great personality on him on the first day of learning. Gauthaman drives well as a result without any issues. But one time hits a car while taking reverse. However his determination and courage resulted him a driving license. His family is extremely happy and his father decides to buy a car as he feels his cycle cannot always fulfil their family needs. Gauthaman selected Mitsubishi Lancer and his family agrees to it. Muthassi gives Gauthaman some money in advance.

Gauthaman is now waiting anxiously for a car to arrive in his house. However on the day the car arrived, Gauthaman was as expected not happy, but instead gloomy as he got a small car and not the one he selected. He argues with the whole family to take back the car. But Ramachandran consoles him that Shibu Ashaan suggested the small car. Gauthaman came to know that Shibu Ashaan cheated him forgetting the credit he gave his teacher in the day of getting license. Muthassi takes care of the vehicle and names it 'Kunjoottan'. However Gauthaman is not satisfied still. His family shows the pride of it in the society. All plans to go for a long ride on Kunjoottan after spoiling his personal activities. Gauthaman's relatives tease him of buying a small low rated car. Gauthaman is angry on his family now.
