Summary: Gopalasami (Bhagyaraj), an unemployed
graduate and son of a barber, pretends to be a
brahmin when he becomes the tenant of
conservative temple priest Srinivasa Sastry
(Somayajulu). He falls for the priest’s daughter
Banu (Shobhana) and they marry. At the
marriage the arrival of Gopalasami’s parents
exposes his true caste identity and he, as well
as his wife, are evicted by the priest. In the end
Banu solves the problem, and Gopalasami is
readmitted into the brahmin household after he
saves Sastry from a suicide attempt. Credited to
the novelist Balakumaran, the comedy belongs
to the established actor-director Bhagyaraj.
