Plot

Kumaran is a hard working farmer living a simple life along with his mother Meenakshi. In reality, Meenakshi is the wife of the village landlord, who lives with his concubine Sengamalam and a son named Muthaiah. Kumaran despises Muthaiah and they lock horns to win the love of Sivagami. Sivagami chooses to marry Kumaran, but her father "Poisatchi" Boothalingam does not approve. So Sivagamai escapes her home and marries Kumaran. Muthaiah and his mother plot to destroy Kumaran. Also Sengamalam hatches a secret plan along with Boothalingam to take over the landlord's property.

Sengamalam is seen in a compromising position with Boothalingam by Muthaiah, who now understands the true intentions of his mother. Sengamalam's plan is to kill the landlord by giving milk laced with poison and make it look like suicide, for which she writes a letter to the police by imitating the landlord's signature. This plan is overheard by Muthaiah, who informs Kumaran and his mother to help save their father and also asks for an apology to Kumaran. Now Kumaran and Muthaiah unite to thwart the plan and save the landlord, who realises his mistake and regrets his misdeeds and apologises to his wife Meenakshi and Kumaran and unites with his first family.
