Adoor BhasiSudhindharan Nair (Sathyan) or Sudhi and Sarala (Sheela) are a newly married couple. Sudhi loves his wife a lot. But he is also possessive and highly suspicious of her, who is beautiful. One night he sees a man run out of his house when returning from work. He accuses Sarala of infidelity and this forces her to leave the house. He concludes that she had been sexually involved with his friend Sasidharan Nair (K. P. Ummer). A few months later, he discovers that the man he saw the other day was actually Sasidharan's wife Kamalakshi's (Khadeeja) extramarital partner. He is filled with remorse. He now wants to bring Sarala back into his life. But, it was too late. Sarala's father Pillai (Adoor Bhasi) had already married her off to Neelakanta Pillai (Sankaradi), a widower.

Twenty years later, he gets a letter from Sarala informing that she had fixed their daughter's marriage and wants him to bless her. He blesses her and goes back home. He dies soon.

The film is set in the Punnapra-Vayalar-Haripad area of Coastal Kerala, a hotbed during the Communist movement in Kerala in the 50s. The story is about Chellappan (Sathyan) a fiercely dedicated Communist, an employee at Chacko's business, where he's become a respected leader amongst the working class by organising pickets and strikes. He, however, neglects his family, abusing his wife Bhavani (Sheela) and their two children, a boy named Kuttappan (to whom Chellappan is indifferent), and a younger girl named Kumari (on whom he dotes). Chellappan is depicted as a man of weak moral fiber (he is shown to have a weakness for numerous other women). Moreover he is highly suspicious of his wife Bhavani, who is still rather comely and of clean habits. He often accuses her of infidelity (the reason behind his indifference towards his son, as he believes that he's not his son's biological father), and often wonders whether his wife having an affair with his friend Gopalan (Prem Nazir), another day-labourer. Due to this suspicion he constantly fights with and physically abuses his wife.
