Solomon's mother and college-going cousin Antony and a female relative who helps at the house lives in Mysore. Paul Pailokkaran, a railway employee, his nurse wife and two young daughters, Sofia and college-going Elizabeth, are the new inhabitants at the neighbouring house. Solomon lives in a farm and vineyard he owns in the outskirts of Mysore and comes to visit his mother once in a while. On one such visit, he meets Sofia and they are shown to begin to share a sweet bond. Romance blossoms. Sofia was born to her mother in her premarital love affair and her father is only her step-father. He often shows intention to molest her. She communicates all this to Solomon and their bond strengthens. They dream of a life together in his vineyard, laughing, smiling, loving, waking up to the chirping of birds and going around in his tanker lorry.

But when Solomon informs his mother of his love, she first disagrees to the marriage as Paul Pailokkaran is an uncouth person and he further reveals Sofia's birth secret to Solomon's mother in an attempt to prevent her marriage with Solomon. But Solomon finally manages to convince his mother and the marriage plans are set in motion. An irked Paul Pailokkaran, on a day when Sofia was alone at home for some time, attacks her, renders her unconscious and rapes her. Solomon, his mother and Sofia's mother come home to discover a distraught Sofia and learn of the rape. Solomon's mother decides once and for all that her son should not enter into alliance with such a family or such a girl. Fighting with his mother, Solomon leaves in his bike. Sofia is consoled by her mother that nothing has happened to her and she accepts it tearfully but expresses her pain that a person who ought to be in her father's position did this to her. Paul Pailokkaran returns home and is unremorseful. He taunts Sofia and her mother that now no-one will come to marry her.

In the wee hours of the next morning, everyone are awaken by the resounding horn of a tanker lorry. After the second horn, Solomon comes at the door of Sophie's home, calling out for her. Paul Pailokkaran opens the door and slyly smiling, says "now you can take her". Solomon hits him black and blue, calling out for Sofia again. When she finally comes out, he goes up to her, tells her "Hadn't we agreed if you didn't come out even after the second horn, I'll come pick you up and go?!" and, lifting her onto his shoulders, takes her to their tanker lorry, and, as his mother and cousin and Sofia's mother and half-sister look on,(implying that his mother has accepted her son's unconditional love now) drives out into the dawn, both of them smiling and hugging each other.

The title of the film and novel is based upon a passage from Biblical book of The Song of Solomon or Song of Songs, Chapter 7:12: "Let us get up early to the vineyards." The protagonist quotes this passage at one point during the film. The film is based on the 1986 novel Nammukku Gramangalil Chennu Rapparkkam by K. K. Sudhakaran.[3][4][5]

The film features original songs composed by Johnson with lyrics by O. N. V. Kurup.

All lyrics are written by O. N. V. Kurup; all music is composed by Johnson.

The film has many allusions to the Bible. If not for many other characters, the character Solomon has the most amount of allusions. The name Solomon itself is derived from the Bible where Solomon is one of the kings who ruled the United Israel. In the film, the character Solomon is a social chameleon as such. The Bible gives sufficient information that the king was very wealthy just like the character in the film. In the Bible it is stated that Solomon had many relationships with women, resulting in having 700 wives and 300 concubines, the film hints the character's possible skirt chasing proclivities. In the movie, we see the character of Solomon is in possession of vast acres of vineyards which he looks after and prospers. The book's female character is a working woman, in the film the character Sophia does all the chores in the house and is a hard worker. In the biblical book, the character is dark skinned, so is the actress. Furthermore, in legends the Queen of Sheba was a strong and independent woman who professed her interest in King Solomon and had respect and appreciation of him as well. In the film, Sophia who was bold and having openly acknowledged her interest in Solomon is equally respected by him. The strong romantic overture of the book is adapted in the film effusively. However, the book in the Bible does not accommodate any rape culture but the idea is not foreign to the bible, like the case of Tamar and her step-brother Amnon, both from King Solomon's family in 2 Samuel 13. Paul, the step-father in the film is a detestable figure as Amnon.

In the Bible, the kingdom of Solomon's is destroyed because of the sins he committed. According to 1 Kings 11:4 Solomon's "wives turned his heart after other gods", their own national deities, to whom Solomon built temples, thus incurring divine anger and retribution in the form of the division of the kingdom after Solomon's death (1 Kings 11:9–13). In the movie, we see Solomon is taking away Sofia to the vineyards who caused him much trouble. It might be a suggestion that there is a possible unholy turn of events awaiting the character Solomon of the film to where he takes her to just like that in the case of the Biblical character of King Solomon.
