Mayandi Kudumbathar

Mayandi proposes sharing a portion of the ancestral land with their stepsister, while Virumandi fiercely opposes the idea. The disagreement sows a deep rift between Mayandi's children and Virumandi's family. The simmering tension sets the stage for years of conflict that will shape everyone’s lives.

To fund Paraman's engineering fees, Mayandi sells part of his land. The wives of Thavasi and Virumandi seize the opportunity to demand an immediate partition of the estate. They believe Paraman's education strains the family finances, while Paraman's brothers prefer unity over division.

Tragedy strikes when Mayandi dies after stepping on an electrified wire. The family mourns his loss, and the earlier dispute resurfaces with renewed intensity. The emotional blow deepens the rift between the factions within the household.

Following the death, the property is partitioned into three parts, leaving Paraman with no land since his father's portion had already been sold. The sisters-in-law treat Paraman as a burden, while his brothers show some loyalty by supporting him. The family unit fractures further as everyone else aligns with their own interests.

Paraman mourns his father and finds solace as Poongodi offers affection and steadiness. She becomes a comforting presence, helping him cope with his loss while he continues his studies. Their bond deepens despite the family's strain.

Poongodi secures admission to Madras Medical College and leaves for Chennai to pursue her education. She maintains frequent phone contact with Paraman, keeping their connection alive across distances. The separation marks a new chapter in their relationship.

Paraman presses on with his engineering course while his brothers defend him against the ill will of their wives. Their loyalty helps him progress despite the earlier ostracism. This period marks a steady improvement in his personal and academic life.

When Thavasi's wife falls seriously ill and needs an urgent blood transfusion, Paraman mobilizes his college friends to donate blood. The timely rescue saves her life, and she realizes her earlier mistreatment of Paraman. The incident softens tensions and reveals Paraman's selflessness.

Paraman secures a job through campus placement, lifting his living conditions and bringing financial stability. This achievement earns him greater respect within the family and helps reduce the perceived burden he once carried. It also signals a shift in family dynamics toward reconciliation.

Paraman encounters Poongodi at a bus stop, seeing her with her husband and a baby and fearing betrayal. Poongodi explains, through a flashback, that her 'husband' is actually a disabled relative and the arranged marriage was canceled. Yet family pressure persists, and she accepts to marry the groom while maintaining contact with Paraman.

Poongodi agrees to marry the groom to avoid insulting the family, despite not wanting the match. She remains compassionate and continues to reach out to Paraman, preserving their emotional connection. Her decision underscores the complexities of duty and sacrifice in the family saga.

Paraman discovers the truth behind Poongodi's decision and feels a deep sense of happiness for her selflessness. He resolves to support her and her family, recognizing the strength of her sacrifices. The moment reinforces his growth and humility.

Paraman meets Virumandi and pleads for a joint life that unites the family. Virumandi and his sons, touched by the plea, accept the reconciliation. Paraman marries his aunt's daughter, sealing a return to a united family and shared future.
