Plot

[edit]

The story is based on Chandanakkunnu panchayat, where rabies due to dog bites has become a fearsome epidemic. People in the panchayat seek all ways to kill the affected dogs. The incumbent panchayat president is challenged by Dasappan raising the insecurity the disease has spread in the place. To gain public support, Dasappan brings Udumbu Vasu to the panchayat to kill the dogs. Vasu is lodged in Muthassi's house. Muthassi's granddaughter Sreedevi falls in love with Vasu after hearing about his orphaned life after his mother's death from a dog bite. Meanwhile, a dreaded gangster and criminal Walayar Manikyam, who killed Sreedevi's father, makes a ruckus in the house for getting him arrested. Vasu and Manikyam gets instigated in a fight after Manikyam misbehaves to Sreedevi, where Manikyam vows revenge on Vasu. While killing two dogs, Vasu gets bitten by one of them and the next day, he gets rabies. Manikyam uses this situation to kill Vasu, but he ends up getting killed by Vasu. In order to save Vasu from being killed by the villagers, Muthassi kills him. Everyone in the village weeps at his death.[1]
