Deepa meets an educated city man (Sivachandran) and falls in love with him. The villagers begin gossiping about their affair, but Sembattayan refuses to believe them, instead berating those who accuse his wife. One day, when Sembattayan returns home, he finds Deepa and Sivachandran in bed. Traumatised, he commits suicide by drowning himself in a pond.[2]
