Plot

A wealthy widow named Kanagamahalakshmi (Bhanupriya), who loses her husband (Nassar) and unborn child in a car crash, opts to look after an orphan child for a period of one month every year. Her decision operates smoothly for a few years. However, when the child, Anjali (Baby Sadhika), returns to the house for a third year, problems begin to arise. She expresses her distaste at the various deficiencies of Kanagamahalakshmi's household, including her foster parent itself. How Anjali makes the members in the house behave properly forms the rest of the story.
