Now director Vinayan, known for trying all possible genres in the films is attempting a children’s movie. The story is set around Kavya Madhavan, who plays an intrepid TV reporter. She also runs an orphanage with Thilakan. The kids in the orphanage, all toppers in their school, come to her rescue in her hour of need. They all use their special talents to help Kavya out.
