Chathikkatha Chanthu (2004): Cast & Plot

Chanthu [Jayasurya] is a young screenwriter whose mother works in a grand mansion owned by Thampuran [Janardhanan]. Thampuran’s daughter Indira [Bhavana] is in love with Chanthu, but he does not return her feelings. When Thampuran learns of this unrequited romance, he uses his influence to manipulate the situation: he compels Chanthu to write earnest, romantic letters to a woman named Vasumathi, an imaginary muse from the fictional village of Thottakkattukara, and makes sure Indira stumbles across them. The plan is simple in appearance, yet it carries a dangerous sting, because a real Vasumathi exists in a real Thottakkattukara—a young woman who is unaware of the letters until fate makes them collide.
