Bogged down by financial problems following his sister#$#s marriage, Ramji, a simple Palghat brahmin cook, sets out to Australia to earn a livelihood and get his family out of the financial crunch. But the unexpected happens and soon he finds himself sans job,passport and work permit. Two kindred souls Badri and his wife (Shriman, Anu) give him shelter. Hounded by immigration officials, Ramji is persuaded by Badri#$#s lawyer friend Ivan to go in for a marriage of convenience to Ivan#$#s fiance Damayanti,an Australian citizen of Srilankan tamil origin. Their marriage, the attempts to hoodwink the immigration officials,the exposing of Ivan,all form the rest. It was meant to be a hilarious scenario, but doesn#$#t quite turn out that way.

Most of the time one gets the feeling of watching a stage play. the situations lack spontaneity and most times are cliched and forced. Like the scene where a racist gang of Whites make their entries now and then into the narration to assault Ramji, thus taking care of the #$#fight#$# scenes. The growing intimacy of Ramji-Damayanti are not convincing enough.
