Cast

Plot Medical student Murali is known for having multiple love affairs. One of his girlfriends, Jayanthi, blackmails him by claiming she is pregnant. His father, Public Prosecutor Kraunakarana Nair, compromises with Jayanthi by giving her 10,000 rupees and Murali discontinues his studies. When back in his hometown, he meets a school teacher named Indu and tries to persuade her to be with him, but she resists. Despite rumors of an affair, she eventually resigns from her job and marries Murali. However, she does not want to be his wife and they only act as a married couple. Murali's changed attitude is put to the test and eventually they are able to truly be together. This story is captured in an iconic Malayalam song from the movie that reflects Murali's feelings. The lyrics show his regret and desire for forgiveness from his partner, comparing her to a lotus and vowing not to tarnish her purity with his actions.

The meaning of lyrics . Darling, I am I admitting my mistakes with bursting in tears You are Lakshmi who made the mind to a lotus l Forgive me and forgive me . I won't touch your pious body with my hands which wrote stories of sin . I will not impure the your lips which is holy as a lotus flower with my kisses holy lips of lotus with my kisses.
