According to the director, "Oridathoru Postman is mainly about the relationship between a father and son, played by Innocent and Kunchacko Boban.

Gangadharan (Innoncent) is a postman in a village and he is not very particular about doing his duties well. He is not too bothered about delivering letters to the addressees on time. He even uses the money orders for some silly things.
The villagers are quite enraged by Gangadharan's behavior and it is his son Raghu Nandanan (Kunchacko Boban) who repays all the money that his father owes.
Raghu is a smart young lad, who has great hopes about his own life. He coaches students to appear for PSC (Public Service Commission) exams and he himself expects to get some nice government job. To earn more, he does a variety of jobs including real estate, mutual fund sales and so on. But his salary is just about enough to settle the issues created by his father.

Raghu helps his father in delivering the letters and one day, he finds that several letters addressed to a person named Yaseen Mubarak (Sarath Kumar) remains undelivered at his place. Now, the search to find the person begins.
"Yaseen was a friend of Gangadharan and came to the village as a wild life photographer. He is a socially conscious person who has enlightened the villagers to keep the premises clean from plastic and tobacco," says Sarath Kumar.
He is quite excited by the response of the Malayali audiences towards him and plans to do more films, if the offers are attractive.
