After Paakaran's birth, his father passed away and Gopala Pillai had married Paruvamma, and they had three children - Sudhakaran, Ravikumar and Urmila. They all were staying in the house which was owned by Paakaran's father. Before death Paakaran's father had written the note that he is transferring all his wealth to Paruvamma and that when Paakaran attains the right age, Paruvamma has to transfer all that she likes to Paakaran. However Paruvamma behaves like all the wealth belongs to her and treats Paakaran like a servant. Often denying him food and making him do all the household activities including kitchen work. Paruvamma's behaviour towards her current husband(Gopala Pillai) is also very bad. However she is very keen about her sons and daughter.

Thankaraj, the police constable, who is behind the illegal liquor mafia, knows her as a peanut seller but is unaware that she sells liquors. A boy asks her for a job, and she takes him to assist her and find out the needy people asking liquor.

Sivan Pilla and Kittu Pillai stays in a guest house, which they used to stay when they had done the same business long ago. Paulose is still the caretaker of the house. While they were in the woods, Kittu Pillai senses the presence of Ammini over there and the traces that it was Omana who was the illegal daughter of Sivan Pillai born to Dhakshayani. Omana was an exact identical look of Ammini. Even Sivan Pillai was confused and they call to Sivan Pillai's house to confirm that Ammini is there. In order to prevent Dhakshayani from taking any revengeful action on Sivan Pillai, they frame a plan and get Omana married to Paakaran, and they succeed in doing so. Omana suffers a lot in Paakaran's house, and she bears it all. When Omana's mother and her friend Bhavani pay visit to her house, they are treated badly by her mother-in-law(Paruvamma).

Ammini and her mother pays visit Sivan Pillai in the guest house. While Ammini was roaming around in that forest covered locality, Dhakshayani mistakes her as her daughter Omana. When Ammini comes to know that she too has a look-alike daughter, she tells that she will visit her house another day.

Kalyani's assistant boy meets Thankaraj on the way. On insisting that he require more liquor, the boy takes Thankaraj to Kalyani's godown, where Thankaraj discovers the real face of Kalyani, and they are arrested.

Bhavani meets Omana on way to market, and takes her to visit her mother Dhakshayani. At the same time Ammini also visit Dhakshayani. On hearing about the difficulties faced by Omana with her in-laws, Ammini charts out a plan, and then dresses herself as Omana and leaves to her house. She then treats her inlaws rudely and teaches Paruvamma a lesson. She also succeeds in building the harsh gentleman out of Pakkaran. She also succeeds to get Gopala Pillai and Pakkaran protest against Paruvamma against her cruel behaviour.

On visiting a lawyer, Paakaran and Omana(who is actually Ammini) is informed that Paakarans father had rightly written the document to transfer the wealth to Pakkaran, as Paruvamma should handle all that she likes to Pakkaran. On their way back they met the boy who was Kalyani's assistant and take him along.

Then finally they all met where Sivan Pillai resides, and the parenthood of Omana is being questioned. Though Sivan Pillai initially stands stern without accepting the fatherhood, ultimately he aggrees. Ammini accepts for the wedding with Sudhakaran, and all ends fine.
