Summary: Malayalam megastar Mohanlal plays Samuel
Alexander, a poor but glamourized garage
owner who falls for the rich and beautiful
Sreedevi Menon (Kanchana). Having annoyed
her with his attentions, he manages to make
her realise the difference between ‘gentlemen’
like him and ‘rogues’. They decide to live
together, an act that forms the major moral
pivot of the film, and she delivers their child
even as he goes to jail. Eventually, in spite of
her parents’ opposition, the two nevertheless
get married. The title refers to the phrase
‘Gandharva Vivaham’, which roughly means
‘marriage blessed by the angels’, an interesting
Hindu ratification of cohabitation or ‘unofficial’
marriage.
