Spoilers ahead
Kunjikrishna Menon, a strict and commanding patriarch, leads a large joint family that is deeply intertwined with tradition and authority. His son, Prem Nazir as Balan, is a responsible and caring young man who holds the family’s honor in high regard. Balan’s younger brother, K P Ummer as Aniyan, contrasts sharply with Balan — he’s selfish, emotionally cold, and shows little regard for others around him.
