Summary: Regarded as a light mythological comedy, it is a rare example of a totally invented mythological. Prince Vindhan (M.V. Mani) hates the god Krishna adored by his sister Mithra (Vasanthakokilam). When Vindhan runs over a child in his chariot, he is tried and sent to prison by his own father but he escapes and stages a coup. He becomes a tyrant with the help of the villainous King Duryodhan. Duryodhan wants Mithra to marry his imbecile brother-in-law Parvatheshwara but Krishna steps in, rescues Mithra and arranges to have his friend disguised as the bride. Krishna and his accomplice are arrested but just then Vindhan’s father, the old king, reappears after having escaped from prison, and puts matters right. Vasanthakokilam’s songs in praise of Krishna were hits.
