Aakasam is not a film about a larger than life hero but instead it projects a down to earth one. An ace comedian, Harisree Ashokan gets a hero remake with this film. This hero is a mechanic named Manoharan. The whole story is about this simple man whose life takes an unusual turn after he unknowingly becomes a part of certain unfortunate events. The film is certainly a family entertainer with a message against some social evils.
