Sreekrishna Parunthu

Puthoor Tharavad is a traditional Kerala family estate famed for its sacred rites and healing magic. The ancestral palace and its outbuilding host rites, confrontations with ghosts, and clashes with rival magicians. The nearby Banyan tree is home to Vada Yakshi and other dark presences, creating a setting where superstition and power collide.

⚖️ Duty and Desire

Kumaran carries the burden of his lineage and the vow of Brahmacharya, yet personal desire tests that duty. The struggle between restraint and temptation weakens his magical power and undermines trust within the family. The theme drives the plot as tradition confronts passion.

👻 Ghosts and Possession

Lakshmikutty's spirit returns after Kumaran breaks his vow, cursing him and meddling in his life. Her later possession of Bhanumathi binds love, fear, and magic into a domestic tragedy. Ghosts catalyze key turning points and moral reckonings.

🪄 Power and Retribution

Kumaran turns to black magic under Varthali’s influence to outwit rivals and protect the family, but this path corrupts him. Divine forces, including Garuda and the goddess Varahi, mete out punishment for transgression. The arc culminates in a fatal confrontation that underscores moral limits of power.

🕊️ Tradition vs Divine Order

The narrative pits ancestral duties against higher powers, culminating in Garuda’s intervention and the goddess’s chastening of Kumaran. The sacred order enforces bounds on magic, showing that even guardians are subject to cosmic checks. The ending reinforces the cost of ignoring divine standards.
