The narrative intricately weaves around Ponni and her father, unraveling the heartfelt story of a young girl who, out of profound love and concern for her ailing father, meticulously orchestrates her own marriage. Ponni's life, marked by the early loss of her mother, positions her as the central figure in the initial chapter, where she resides with her father in the face of impending societal expectations.
Concurrently, the tale introduces Sakthi and his family, distinguished in their town for their devotion to Murugan and their enchanting chants on significant occasions. Ponni and Sakthi, childhood friends, grapple with societal pressures that attempt to dictate Ponni's marital fate. Fiercely determined, Ponni assumes the guise of a maid to infiltrate Sakthi's household, where a tapestry of complex relationships and romantic entanglements begins to unfold.
Sakthi, entangled in love affairs with Preethi and Vennila, reaches a pivotal decision to embark on matrimony. However, complications ensue, leading to Preethi's departure from the mahal due to her father's adherence to the dowry system. Vennila, too, departs upon Sakthi's revelation that he is not in love with her. Ponni, coerced into an unconventional marriage, confronts the challenges with resilience, solidifying her bond with Sakthi against the odds.
Chandrasekar, Sakthi's discerning father, becomes aware of Ponni's true predicament, embracing her as a daughter. The family grapples with societal judgments, as Ponni's unique background elicits misconceptions about her literacy and demeanor.
Enter Shivani, a grateful soul indebted to Ponni for her unwavering support in achieving success. Shivani, with unwavering determination, becomes an instrumental force in fostering the chemistry between Ponni and Sakthi. Despite Sakthi's apparent lack of regard, Shivani strategically navigates familial dynamics, creating a sense of belonging for Ponni within the intricate tapestry of relationships.
The narrative reaches a poignant crescendo during the wedding chain celebration, where Sakthi's preoccupied thoughts manifest in the rejection of Shivani. Simultaneously, Jeyalakshmi, tasked with conducting rituals alone due to Ponni's father's illness, grapples with the challenges that ensue. The narrative's core lies in the triumphant journey of Ponni's marriage, overcoming societal trials and earning the hard-fought approval of Jeyalakshmi, marking the series with a compelling and emotionally charged essence.
