All the issues started when Anoop has been awarded as the first-place winner of the Kerala government's massive Onam raffle. Anoop will receive Rs. 15 crore as prize money after deducting taxes and other debts. He cheered that the prize money would enable him to pay off his obligations and go forward in life because luck had chosen to favour him just as he was preparing to travel to Malaysia for better opportunities.

About 12 miles from the capital city, at Sreekariyam, Anoop resides with his wife, child, and mother. He had declared his initial goal after winning would be to construct a home for his family. He claimed he would like to deposit the money in a bank for two years after everything that transpired in a week.
