Plot

edit

Sivaraman and Balaraman are brothers living together and have no parents. Sivaraman is a graduate and looking for a job while Balaraman is not educated but is a wise man. He does the household works and respects his elder brother as a God.
Pandian lives in the same area and he told his daughter Kannamma to help Balaraman in cooking. Though Sivaraman is unemployed, he marries Kannamma on the recommendation by Balaraman. Soon the couple are blessed with a child.
Sivaraman has borrowed money from a lender but not repaid it for a long time. He absconds from the lender. However, one day the lender sees and starts chasing him. Sivaraman runs away and hides in a big house.
Zamindar Anandan lives in that house with his daughter Bharathi. He came to live in the city as he was scared of a big man called Sakuni in his village. Sakuni, true to his name, is a schemer. He makes his son an advocate so that the son can marry Bharathi and take over the Zamin.
Anandan sees the well built Sivaraman and appoints his as the manager of his zamin estate. Sivaraman had to go to the village in a rush even without informing his wife and younger brother.
While Sivaraman is encountered by Sakuni and undergoes many tribulations including going to jail on a charge of murder, Balaraman and Kannamma struggles due to poverty. How everything is settled forms the rest of the story.
