The movie opens up in the childhood pranks of Krishnankutty, the son of famous Gandhian Munshi Shankara Pillai who is repeatedly beaten up by Antappan, his big schoolmate. Antappan is taking vengeance for the Gandhian deeds of Munshi who has closed down the toddy shop owned by Antappan's father. And when a chance comes up, Krishankutty retaliates by placing the costly golden church arrow in the bag of Antappan, which makes him a thief and lands him in a juvenile home for young criminals.

As they grow up, Krishnankutty becomes a TV producer in the name Krish but is ready to play fowl games and make money by little frauds. But his father Munshi who has now become a much proclaimed Gandhian finds an able girl in Abhirami, the only daughter of Abkari contractor Bhasi, to reform his son.

Abhirami and Co who is running the Kasturba Society are on the plans to hold a mass wedding of 101 couples in which she will also find a suitable groom and marry. The mass wedding is arranged in such a way that the interested persons are needed to stay in the picturesque resort-like village for two weeks to get familiar with their probable future partners. Krish is but reluctant to marry another girl with Gandhian principles and brings in Jyothish Kumar a.k.a. Jyothi, a dance teacher with all female mannerisms, gets him registered as Krishanankutty to make Abhirami move away from this alliance. Antappan and his gang who has now grown up as famous quotation gangs also register for the marriage in the plans to grab the money and 5 gold coins that are given to each couple. And as the day to the marriage comes up, more and more persons enroll into the mass wedding with their own interesting plans.

A critic from Rediff.com wrote that "As for the impact of 101 Weddings it is just a typical Shafi entertainer, which takes a while to reach the climax".^[4] A critic from The Times of India wrote that "The film employs crude humour and bawdy one-liners but the effect is incomplete, and the film runs out of all its promised charm way too soon".^[5]

The film collected US$301 from the UK box office.^[6]
