Plot

Murugaiah (Sivaji Ganesan), a temple priest in a village along with his wife (Sowcar Janaki) and younger brother, Sundaram (again Sivaji Ganesan). Murugaiah is a believer of god, he is very much respected by villagers and believed that he encounters mystic experiences whenever he sees Lord Krishna and Sundaram is a non-believer of god. Troubles will plague him after he finds out that Sundaram has not only been creating problems for Dharmalingham (M. R. R. Vasu) the village head but has also fallen in love and wants to get marry Radha, the daughter of Dharmalingham's sister. Taking this as an advantage Dharmalingham separates Murugaiah & Sundaram and an old ruined house of their grandfather is given to Sundaram as his share. Sundaram modifies and establishes a school in it. Before Murugaiah could even attempt to resolve these issues, the keys of the temple are taken away from him by Dharmalingham, and he can no longer pray nor converse with Lord. Things come to a boil after he is told that Sundaram has forcibly taken the keys, and Dharmalingham has stolen all the temple's jewelry, when they are searching for it a treasure of Murugaiah & Sundaram's ancestors is been found Murugaiah says he will use the treasure for development and Sundaram argues that the school which will lead to progress and not the temples. Rest of the story is who wins the bet.
