Nandagopal goes there to sell the property in order to overcome their financial difficulties. But it's not easy to sell the bungalow as Nachiappa Gounder, a cruel landlord refuses. Meanwhile, Nandu falls in love with Chembakam. This matter creates other problems. Nandu's friends decide to bring his mother and sister to stay in the house. When Madhavi comes and sees the house, she is shocked. For there is a story from the past that she remembers and that Nandagopal doesn't know. Finally Nandu realises that Nachiappa's cruelty towards his family was only a part of enmity with roots in the past and he killed Raghavan in front of Madhavi.
