Plot
[edit]When Kavitha is forced by her father to marry an IAS officer, she seeks helps from her tutor. On the day of the wedding, Kavitha runs away from the mandap as she is not interested in marrying the groom, Prabhulla Kumar, an IAS officer that has been arranged for her. The bride's father suffers a heart attack upon learning that his daughter ran away from the mandap. Upon investigation, the groom is revealed to be a fraudster who has married different women in various districts of Kerala posing as multiple professions such as doctor and chartered account. Meanwhile, a woman is crying at the hospital because she doesn't have money to buy medicines and arrange for a heart surgery for her daughter. Here enters Vinod, who is this woman's son with cash for his sister's treatment and surgery. The sister and the bride's father are admitted to the same hospital. It turns out that Vinod's family and Kavitha's family used to be neighbours in their childhood days and they were childhood friends. Upon the death of Kavitha's mother, Kavitha and her father had to move away to their native place. Vinod meets Kavitha's father at the hospital and during their conversation, it comes out that Kavitha was abducted on the day of the wedding. Vinod reflects back to the day. It was on his bike that Kavitha fled, but unknowingly. Further, it is revealed that Prabhulla Kumar was the one who paid Vinod to abduct Kavitha. A fight ensues between Vinod and Prabhulla Kumar as Vinod tries to save Kavitha from Prabhulla Kumar. Prabhulla Kumar confesses that he had feelings for Kavitha which is why he wanted to stop the wedding and hence arranged for her kidnapping. In the fight, Vinod gets stabbed, but survives and they both unite.
