Summary: Krishna (Kamalahasan), a widower with two
children, lives with his mother-in-law
(Lakshmi). Having been persuaded by a
confidence trickster (Hanifa) to put all his
money into a shady company that goes
bankrupt, he is jailed, where his children come
to visit him accompanied by their grandmother.
His cellmate (Vishwanathan) receives visits
from his daughter, the nurse Yamuna
(Sukanya), and the latter becomes involved
with Krishna’s family and looks after them.
Upon his release, Krishna finds that his motherin-
law has died, his son disappeared and his
daughter Kaveri works in a Calcutta brothel,
where Krishna and his former cellmate find
and rescue her. Distraught by the destruction of
his family, Krishna eventually tracks down the
con man, whom he blames for all his
misfortunes, and murders the man and his
accomplices.
