Shiva falls in love with Ganga (Mantra) at first sight and tries to seduce her with Vichu's help. Ultimately, Ganga also falls in love with him. Gowri (Sangita) comes from her village and begins to work in Pandiyan's house as a maid.
A few months ago, Shiva was bitten by a snake, and Muthu (Siva) saved him. Muthu cannot marry Gowri because of their horoscope. According to tradition, Gowri must get married to another man for one week and then she can marry Muthu. Shiva, grateful to Muthu for saving his life, got married to her and left the village.
