Madhu plays a double role here as a father and a son. The son is waylaid and carefree always splurging and spending . The rich industrialist father is trying to teach him a lesson about life and income . He keeps remembering his own youth. The movie is basically a series of flash backs. The father Madhu himself had a love marriage with Srividya. They meet due to some misunderstandings. Srividya is from a rich family and are awaiting a banker in their estate. Madhu walks in to find a job and is mistaken to be the banker. A series of confusions leads him to fall in love with Srividya When he is thrown out by her father as the truth eventually comes out Srividya walks out with him much to her father's displeasure . They start their lives without much income . He also works as a server in some party where Srividy and her father visit . She is humiliated by her husband's plight and her father's insulting talk . She endures all . Srividya is very helpful and encouraging .After a lot of failures he succeeds in his business but keeps on sidelining his wife and family . She tolerates all this change patiently . Finally it takes it toll and she dies in his arms . The son Madhu learns his lesson and marries his sweetheart Subhashini ( Jayasudha's sister ) . They have a lot of squabbles among them due to his greed and speed to succeed. He keeps ignoring her and she returns back to her maternal house . Father Madhu comes in between and gives a long lecture about family life . The son learns from the father's mistakes and all turns out well in the end . A fine movie even today about family values . Srividya and Subhashini wear pretty sarees to show their domestic status . Its not easy to believe a nearly 40 year old Madhu as a chirpy play ful young chap . The father Madhu is more convincing in his role . Over all a fine movie even today .
