Her father wants her to marry soon as he is suffering from ill health . Unsure about the prospectus groom Jayan , she brings simpleton village bumpkin Prem Nazir as her lover.
She had met him while travelling back home . He is of course surprised but agrees after some misgivings. His mother ( whom he adores) says that he should help any one and every one without understanding his real situation. Being simple , he takes it as her advice and agrees to play along with JB .
She dresses and trains him to impress her father .
Enamored by his daughter's choice , he agrees immediately.
The first half is a comedy of errors. Jayan and his mother Sukumari are very unhappy at this development .
JB's family is very happy with her choice . Her father soon announces that his would be SIL will inherit all his wealth.
Even JB is shocked at this . Meanwhile a stung Jayan goes around digging about PN's past. He
find out about his simple meagre status and informs his mother about her son's actions.
Unable to belive that her son can cheat some one , she comes to the mansion to see for herself .
PN refuses to recognize her . He does not want to antagonize JB's father .
Shocked at this , she dies of shock.
JB becomes a changed man after this . Filled with remorse JB tries to console him .
In the end , JB's father comes to know Jayan's true colours . A reformed JB and a smart mature PN unite.
Sukumari is wasted in a small role as Jayan's cunning mother.
JB and Srilatha look ridiculous with bob cut wigs and tight tops with bell bottom pants in the first half .
PN is super as a country bumpkin .He invokes a lot of laughs and sympathy as an innocent chap .
