Oru Vadakkan Selfie is a 2015 Malayalam movie directed by G. Prajith and produced by Vinod Shornur under the banner of Cast N' Crew. The film stars Nivin Pauly, Aju Varghese, Vineeth Sreenivasan, and Manjima Mohan in lead roles. The movie begins with the introduction of the main protagonist named Umesh (Nivin Pauly), a carefree and irresponsible young man. He is always seen with his two best friends, Dinaker (Aju Varghese) and Shaji (Neeraj Madhav). Umesh dreams of becoming a filmmaker, but he is often ridiculed by others due to his lack of talent and dedication.

One day, Umesh attends his cousin's wedding, where he meets his childhood crush named Daisy (Manjima Mohan). Daisy is a talented singer and a responsible person, quite unlike Umesh's carefree personality. He soon realizes his feelings for Daisy and decides to impress her by making a short film that revolves around her life.

Umesh and his friends embark on a road trip to Kanyakumari with the intention of filming Daisy's life. On the way, they encounter several challenges and adventures, including a run-in with the police, an encounter with a gang of thieves, and a romantic encounter with a French girl named Juliette (Anju Kurian).

As the journey progresses, Umesh realizes that he has fallen in love with Daisy and decides to express his feelings to her. However, he is devastated when he discovers that Daisy is already engaged to someone else. Umesh, who is heartbroken and disappointed, decides to give up his dreams of becoming a filmmaker and return to his mundane life.
