Plot

The story revolves around a poor girl living with her widowed mother and siblings. Poverty and the family situation led her mother to prostitute herself for the welfare of the family. Bhagyaraj treats this subject from the perspective of the girl who sees the wrong of her mother; but later teases the thought of right and wrong with viewers considering the situation that the mother gets into. Bhagyaraj, himself plays the neighbour who first falls in love with the girl, later to realise that she is already in a relationship with someone else.
