The poor orphan Ramu (Vineeth),
accompanied by his tyrannical uncle, visits the
temple town of Guruvayoor where he falls in
love with Gouri (Monisha). Ramu runs away to
live near Gouri’s village, where she works as a
maid for a rich but generous lawyer. The
lawyer pays for Ramu’s education and employs
him as his assistant. However, Lakshmi
(Saleena), the lawyer’s deaf-mute daughter,
falls in love with Ramu. Unable to resolve what
he sees as the conflicting demands of love and
obligation, Ramu kills himself. The film, noted
for its popular music and the presence of the
singer Jayachandran, also featured the screen
debuts of two University Art Festival
discoveries, Vineeth and Monisha.
