Plot

Mandhira Moorthy (Livingston), a medical representative, will soon marry Bhavani (Maheswari) who is from a rich family. Mandhira Moorthy is deeply in love with Bhagavathi (Lakshmi), a poor dancer, and she becomes pregnant. His miser aunt pressured Mandhira Moorthy for money so he decides to leave the village for the city.

Later, Bhagavathi comes to see Mandhira Moorthy after a while. Shocked to see her before his marriage, Mandhira Moorthy brings her to a remote place. He marries her in front of a statue of God and he then kills the harmless Bhagavathi. Mandhira Moorthy feels guilt for his deed.

After getting to Bhavani, Mandhira Moorthy suspects Bhavani of being haunted by Bhagavathi.
