Sumo

Sumo

The film starts with Jack, the owner of a surfing club with a lot of international guests, telling his backstory about a special container to the police. He also tells them about his friend surfer Shiva and his girlfriend Kani. He tells them about a sumo wrestler, who washed ashore near Chennai, who tightly clenches Shiva's pinky. Shiva gets a curtain stitched for the sumo wrestler as his clothes due to his size. Shiva tells the local police inspector about the sumo wrestler. After consulting a doctor, they discover that the sumo wrestler was mentally affected after landing ashore and acts like a child. Shiva suggests bringing the sumo wrestler to his and Jack's house to which Jack doesn't agree to. Meanwhile, Kani is folding her clothes, her dupatta falls and lands on a local gangster Yogi Babu, which he mistakes for love. Yogi Babu tries to win over her father as well by drinking alcohol with him and indulges in antics such as making TikTok videos. Shiva and Jack take the sumo wrestler to local eating competitions to satisfy his insane hunger. Yogi Babu, who is jealous of Shiva, attacks the sumo wrestler with his henchman, but Shiva intervenes and saves him. After he glares at a Japanese flag at a store, Shiva realises that the sumo wrestler has a special connection with Japan. Shiva, Kani and Jack name the sumo wrestler Ganesh after he acts as Ganesh during a festival.
