Dileep plays Solomon in Marykkundoru Kunjadu, a village simpleton who has been nicknamed Kunjadu, since he is adept at getting beaten up by people. In love with Mary (Bhavana) and at loggerheads with her three gigantic brothers, life isn't easy for Solomon. When he befriends a giant of a man who calls himself Vishnu (Biju Menon) and whom he saves from a well, Solomon starts life afresh, and learns to set his spine straight for once.
Shafi's Marykkundoru Kunjadu doesn't let the young lamb graze any new meadows. Rather it trots around on well-known pastures and makes do with easily identifiable story situations. Dileep's Solomon is a redraft of several characters that he himself has done in the past. In fact, Solomon is the kind of character that has over the years, made Dileep the actor and star he is today.
Shafi's story midway through makes an admittance in the form of a mumble that emerges from Solomon. Solomon admits that he would have a field day from now on, with Vishnu beside him, like 'Cochin Haneefa in Kireedom'. Perhaps this was the spur for the film itself since about three fourth of it depends on this connection that is established between Solomon and Vishnu.
