Calendar tells the story of the strong and obsessive bond between a mother and her daughter. Thankam George, aka Thankamma, a college professor was widowed at a young age. But she didn't agree to remarriage and lived for her daughter Kochurani, now a college student.

Kochurani is in love with Olikkara Sojappan, who is a constant visitor to their house. But things turn sour when Thankam learns that Sojappan and Kochurani are in love. She objects to their marriage. But ultimately relents on the condition that Sojappan won't take Kochurani away from her and will stay with her. They are engaged to be married. But fate has something else in store for them. In an accident, Sojappan dies and Kochurani who was found to be three months pregnant has miscarried. Cut to three years later, Thankam and Kochurani shift over to another place. And then comes Dr. Roy Chacko.

Roy's mother Annamma wants Roy to get married as soon as possible. She has been asking Manjooran, in whose hospital Roy works (and who is also related to Thankam), to find him a suitable bride. It's at this juncture that Thankam and Kochurani come there. Manjooran decides to try to get Roy married to Kochurani. After Kochurani marry Roy things get changed. Kochurani, a newlywed, ceased to be as close to Thankam as she used to. Thankamma wants Kochurani near her so she decides to write an anonymous letter to her son in law, describing Kochurani's past engagement and her miscarriage. An angry Kochurani speaks harshly to Thankam. Roy convinces an angry Kochurani that her mother's happiness comes only from her and that all this happened because of some miscommunication . Now Kochurani understands her mistakes and goes to Thankam's house only to find her gone. Finally, they find Thankamma in her uncle's house. As Kochurani tries to apologise to her mother, she realises that Thankam has passed away in her sleep.

The film's soundtrack contains eight songs, all composed by Afzal Yusuf and Lyrics by Anil Panachooran.
