The story of Kunjananthante Kada is set in a village around the Mattannur-Iritty area of Kannur, Kerala. Kunjananthan (Mammootty) manages a provision store the village. Resigned to an unhappy marriage, it is this shop that is at the centre of his existence. The owner of the building pleads with him to vacate the shop so he may settle his debts, but Kunjananthan does not relent. Eviction, however, seems unavoidable when the government tries to acquire land for a road development project. Kunjanthan's travails to retain the shop form the second-half of the film.

Its a heartfelt story of a male help/valet and his motherly affection to the elderly women, whom he looks after. It explores the keralite soul of family and the seamier aspects of it and finishes it with an evocation of the need to keep intrinsic humane values, in any period of change. Mammootty plays the role of the help who is also a vigilant caretaker of the Tharavad Veedu and is referred as the "Tree of Goodness" which protects sanctity of the household. Sharada plays the role of the affectionate mother and Nayanthara as the house help.
