As per the king's order, the soldiers take Sivagami and child to the jungle to kill them.

The hunter's wife Singi suspects her husband and complains to the tribe's chief.

The child that was floating on the river was found by a person who named her as Ponni and brings her up as a young woman.

In the meantime, Marthandan, the son of Mahendran's minister tries to capture the kingdom and engages himself in various plots.

Whether he succeeds, what was the fate of Sivagami, whether the lovers got married, forms the rest of the story.
