The story of ‘Comali’ revolves around Jayam Ravi’s character, who comes into his senses after 16 years in coma. The plot then involves the funny instances of the time gap, be it giving ‘change’ to the tea-seller for a cup thinking he’d get change in return, getting shocked at Kajal Aggarwal’s torn jeans, etc. Yogi Babu is also in fine form as his friend. 

The twist in the tale comes when he realises his girlfriend from 16 years ago, played by Samyukta Hegde, is married and the funny instances around it form the basic plot.

One of the best moments is when Yogi Babu tells him, “This is 2016”, asking him to believe it by looking at the TV where Rajinikanth is saying ‘I will enter politics’. Jayam Ravi then refuses to believe it and says, “This is 1996.”
