Plot summary

Ottakkannan Pokker barely ekes out a living as a card sharper. His daughter Sainaba runs a small tea shop in the market place. She falls in love with Mandan Muthappa. Pokker objects this relationship because he hoped for a better son-in-law. The story develops with love between Sainaba and Mandan Muthappa and ends with how Mandan Muthappa defeated Ottakkannan Pokker in the card game.
