Akalya (Archana Singh) works in a loom factory and works under her boss (Muthuraman), who is in love with her. Two men (Rajendran and Swaminathan) manage a loom factory next door to Akalya's, and they fall in love with her. Hari (Krishnamoorthy), an ice cream seller, forgets his age and wants to marry Akalya. Meanwhile, Sunil Kumar falls in love a tenth standard girl, Nirmala. With several people in love with her, Akalya is unsure of what to do. The wives of the men who are in love with Akalya come to Akalya's house. They tell Akalya that if she tells the police about all of her loves, then all the wives will suffer. To prevent any issues, the wives suffocate Akalya and hang her from the ceiling as if she committed suicide.
