Plot

Siva Subrahmaniam aka Subru, an innocent bank employee is in love with Rohini, but is afraid to express his love to her. His grandmother wants him to be a celibate Brahmachari and become a priest at the nearby temple. Rohini is working as an artist at the Keerikkad ballet troupe run by Keerikkad Chellappan Nair.

Subru joins the ballet troupe to woo Rohini after taking the advice of Sankaran Pillai, Chellappan Nair's assistant. She is attracted to his innocent and straightforward behavior and falls in love with him. One day when she misses her bus, Rohini asks a car driver for a lift, and she is dropped at the ballet troupe office without any knowledge that the car belongs to Suresh Menon, a rich business tycoon in the area. Sankaran and Chellappan mistake her to be in love with Suresh Menon.

In order to appease Suresh Menon and get him to invest in the troupe, Chellappan offers the lead role to Rohini and gives her a pay raise. Meanwhile, Subrahmaniam is suspended from the bank for not attending office for a long time. Due to certain misunderstandings, Rohini breaks up with him, hurting him deeply. Subru is also thrown out of the troupe by Chellappan Nair for not performing up to the mark.

Suresh Menon, upon knowing about Rohini and her claims of being his love interest, appears in front of her. Not knowing that he is the original Suresh Menon, she takes his help in solving the mess created at the ballet troupe. In the end, Suresh Menon solves the mess and gets Subru and Rohini together once again.
