Set in a Tamil village, this 1987 drama follows Balu Thevar, an outspoken atheist from a land-owning caste, whose son Sankarapandi falls in love with Vaidehi, the daughter of a Brahmin priest. Their relationship exposes the rigid caste divisions and hypocrisies within the community, setting off a chain of dramatic events that affect both families. Directed by Bharathiraja and based on a stage play, the film offers a pointed critique of caste prejudice and Tamil Brahminical customs.
