Sarvam Maya ending explained
When Prabhendu Namboothiri started assisting his cousin as a priest in order to earn money, after one puja, he saw a ghost, which he called ‘Delulu’. However, the ghost didn’t hurt him but followed him. Interestingly, his life started changing in unusual and funny ways.
At the beginning, Prabhendu looks confused when he finds out a ghost is following him around all the time. But despite being a ghost, Delulu, played by Riya Shibu, acts friendly and tries to help him in everyway possible. Amid this, Prabhendhu was also dealing with his feelings for a Saadhya, played by Preity Mukhundhan, which makes things more complex.
Viewers also get to know that the ghost, Delulu, has her own pain and problems to deal with. By the end of the film, Delulu breaks the silence about how she feels about him and tells him that she loves him. It was a big revelation for Prabhendhu because he loves Saadhya.
