A married couple and their two children live together in South India. The family soon decide to have another child, however when born, it appears the child suffers from a terminal disease. The ailment is brought to the attention of the husband (Raghuvaran) at the local hospital, and together, the hospital authorities and the husband collude to keep the child's disease a secret from the mother (Revathi). They let the family believe the child is dead. When the truth eventually transpires, the child is brought back to the household. Colony respresentatives co-mingle to advocate the expulsion of the mentally-affected child from the neighbourhood as it is affecting other children.
