Transcription
Plot
Karunakaran is a shrewd and rich businessman who has amassed wealth mostly through unethical means. His wife pretends to be paralyzed and is bedridden. He has two sons Raveendran who is meek and Haridas who is principled and has left their home. After a visit to his concubine, Karunakaran dies of an apparent heart attack and Raveendran takes over the family’s business.
Raveendran worships his dead father and starts spending money recklessly on alcohol, parties and women. He keeps his brother under his control and is surrounded by friends who keep exploiting him. His wife Shanta is the daughter of a school teacher and tries unsuccessfully to mend his ways. Their businesses start losing money and Raveendran goes on a downward spiral. Madhavi the servant of the house, leaves after Raveendran tries to molest her. As their business totally crumbles, all his supposed friends leave him and Raveendran becomes more reckless, ultimately killing their dog. Haridas is fed up, takes his mother and moves in with Madhavi, ultimately marrying her.
What happens to Raveendran and his family forms the rest of the story.
