Her house accommodates the pilgrims to the temple. Nedumudi Venu and Mullanezhi are the temple workers and close friends of Radha. Radha makes flower chains for the lord at the temple. She makes a living by selling milk. A newly appointed teacher, Nandini Kukku Parameshwaran comes to the village. As there are no other safe and comfortable lodging available, Nandini stays at Radha's house. Nandini has a baby son, Kannan. When Nandini goes to work, Radha takes care of Kannan. This develops unbreakable bond between Radha and Kannan. Soon, Nandini found out that she is pregnant with her second child, by the time, Radha became almost a mother to Kannan, loving and caring him more than his biological mother.
