The story revolves around an insecure teetotaler named Sarathy, who feels bad due to his dark skin (his wife Vasanthi is fairer than him), which is often the butt of many jokes. Because Sarathy feels inferior to Vasanthi, he begins to suspect her of infidelity and thinks that she will one day elope with a lover. After a misunderstanding, Sarathy and his mother Saradha are estranged, which further weakens the bond between him and Vasanthi. How Sarathy resolves his issues and gets back together with Vasanthi forms the rest of the story.
The soundtrack was composed by Dhina. [2]
