Plot
Kind-hearted Manikyam is a potter in a village living with his drunken father and his mute sister Lakshmi. His main aim in life is to get her married. He is always helpful and cheerful. Each alliance fails to take off for different reasons like insufficient money, ill intentions, or robbery. He promises to marry Meenakshi after his sister is married. At the end, the sister stops dreaming about her marriage when she realizes the ordeals of her brother. She quietly sleeps in a kiln.
