When Arunachalam moves out of his home and starts living with Priya, Leelavathi employs the services of her husband’s childhood friend Shaktivel (Kamalahasan), Shaktivel’s wife Pazhani (Sarala) and Priya’s ex-boyfriend Raja (Raja) who wants Priya back. An adaptation of Susan Seidelman’s She-Devil (1989), the film shares none of Roseanne Barr’s agency in establishing her own identity while destroying her husband’s; Mahendra’s more conventionally melodramatic alternatives were geared to middle-class acceptance and ensured the film’s success.
