Out of Syllabus

Gopikrishnan grows up in a small village and arrives at a city college eager but out of step with his peers. He becomes the butt of jokes and a target of campus ridicule, struggling to fit in and earn respect. He studies hard, learns customs, and leans on support from Namitha, a fellow student who believes in him. Gradually he steadily gains confidence, stands up to taunts, and becomes more involved in student life. His efforts lead to a campaign for College Union Chairman, where he meets rivals and entrenched prejudice. The story follows his attempts to change how others see him, while keeping the focus on friendships, rivalry, and the awkward growth of someone trying to rise above his reputation.
