Proprietors: Kammath & Kammath

Kammath and Kammath is a film about two brothers, Raja Raja Kammath (Kammath Sr.) and Deva Raja Kammath (Kammath Jr.), and a business endeavor that changed their lives forever. The Kammath brothers initially started making and selling dosa (savory South Indian crêpes) at a small stand to support their poor family. Eventually, their dosa received critical acclaim, and their stand grew into a restaurant, which grew into dozens of restaurants across South India. Sulaiman Sahib who is their rival, blocks the entry of Kammath Sr. He runs a non-vegetarian restaurant that is opposite a now defunct Brahmin vegetarian restaurant. He has a target of acquiring this restaurant's land.

The Kammath brothers plan to inaugurate their new restaurant in the building and land of the defunct restaurant. On opening day, municipal secretary Mahalakshmi and ward counselor Sebastian Kuzhivelil are brought by Sulaiman Sahib to stop it from opening. They fail because the restaurant's name is now Kammath & Kammath and it has obtained a new license and ownership.

Sulaiman Sahib, with the help of a thief tosses stones and breaks Mahalakshmi's windows and frames Kammath Sr for the crime, resulting in him being arrested and he subsequently meets his brother Kammath Jr. in prison after he had been arrested for allegedly selling liquor illegally in their new restaurant. The Kammath Brothers threaten Pathrose in the police station and the truth is revealed that he has thrown stones at Mahalakshmi's house that neighbours the Kammaths' house at the request of Sulaiman Sahib and Sebastian Kuzhivelil. The restaurant security cameras reveal that people sent by Sulaiman Sahib brought the liquor to the restaurant to implicate Kammath Jr.

Later, both Mahalakshmi and Sulaiman Sahib are convinced by the elder Kammath that they are not problem makers and both become friends with them. The Kammaths open their new restaurant in Coimbatore with superstar Dhanush as inaugurator. One night, Sunnichan, attacks Mahalakshmi, asking about his sister, while she was coming back to Palakkad from Coimbatore. The elder Kammath saves her from Sunnichan by sending chauffeur/bodyguard Gopi to deal with him. On this journey Kammath and Mahalakshmi go to a restaurant. There Kammath meets his old wife with her new husband.

While continuing the journey a flashback reveals that she was his wife, but she had a different nature than the Kammath family had expected. One day when Kammath's father suffers from chest pain, his mother asks her to drive him to hospital. She refuses as she had just applied Mehndi and wanted it to dry. His father passes away. Kammath Sr. realizes they are incompatible and divorce. Mahalakshim pities him after hearing the story.

The next day Kammath is invited by Mahalakshmi to talk about a problem. She introduces her sister Surekha to Kammath and says Surekha is scared that somebody is following her. The next day Kammath fights with a helmeted person who comes near her. When the helmet is removed Kammath sees his brother Deva. He becomes sad as he realises that he has beaten up his own brother. When they all leave another person with a helmet who was following her arrives.

Raja Raja Kammath proceeds with the idea of his brother marrying Surekha. Mahalakshmi tells them that Surekha is actually her deceased brother's wife and a Christian instead of a Hindu. Surekha's history is revealed by Mahalakshmi. Her brother Suresh had married her years ago despite opposition from her family. On the first night of marriage Suresh is killed by Vikram her family's henchman. He is Surekha's real stalker. The story reveals that Sunnichan is her brother. Even after knowing this story Deva Raja Kammath wishes to marry her. Later at her home, the Kammaths realise to their shock that Surekha cannot speak. Deva still wants to marry her.

On the night before the wedding, Deva is accosted by Vikram and Surekha's brothers. He escapes to a godown where the elder Kammath awaits. A fight ensues. The next day the villains are handed over to the police at Surekha's home and Deva marries Surekha. To everyone's surprise Mahalakshmi is married by the groom found by her deceased brother Suresh.

Mammootty was chosen to play a prominent character. The character of his brother in the film was originally chosen as Jayaram but schedule conflicts led Dileep to replace him.[1] Kunchacko Boban had been approached for the role of Income tax officer, but he opted out, again due to schedule conflicts.[2] Dhanush was chosen to play a star who comes to Kerala to inaugurate the restaurant.[3] Most of the scenes from the film were shot in Cochin.[4]
