Wedding at dawn) is a 1986 Indian Tamil-language thriller film directed by Manivannan, starring Sathyaraj and Jayashree.
[3] Movie begins with a mother (Janaki) and her adult daughter (Divya) in shock looking at the dead body of a man who they apparently just killed.
It happens to fall on a man hiding below the cliff (Arumugam) who we learn is a death row convict who escaped from prison.
Janaki arrives on time and tries to save Divya and ends up killing Raju in the process.
Janaki suggests Arumugam disguises as her elder brother who is in town for Divya's wedding.
The rich guy and two of his friends, (Ravi is one of the two) send Arumugam away to run some errands, and rape his sister when he was away.
But Balaji reveals he is innocent, and the third person was actually MP's son Raju, who joined the party after Arumugam left the scene.
Janaki protests, but Arumugam convinces her that since he cannot escape death sentence for the other 2 killings, it does not matter if one more is added to his name.
