Madhavan Nambiar, now a former state minister, is dead and Induchoodan, who is all rage
at the gross injustice meted out to him - thus destroying his promising life, is released from
prison. Induchoodan thwarts Manapally Pavithran (N F Varghese), Manappally's elder son

between Induchoodan and Manapally's henchmen follow.
Justice Menon and his wife returns to Kerala to stay with Induchoodan. There is an

Menon. Menon flatly refuses the claim and banishes her. Forced by circumstances and at

claim. Induchoodan at first thrashes the protesters. But upon knowing the truth from
Chandrabhanu(Jagathi Sreekumar) his uncle, he accepts the task of her protection in the
capacity as elder brother. Induchoodan decides to marry off Indulekha to his good friend
Jayakrishnan (Vijayakumar). Induchoodan has a confrontation with his father and prods
him to accept mistake and acknowledge the parentage of Indulekha. Menon ultimately
regrets and goes on to confess to his daughter. The very next day, when Induchoodan
returns to Poovally, Indulekha is found dead and Menon is accused of murdering her. The
whole act was planned by Pavithran, who after killing Indulekha, forces Raman Nair
(Menon's longtime servant) to testify against Menon in court. In court, Nandagopal Maarar
(Mammootty), a close friend of Induchoodan and a famous supreme court lawyer, appears
for Menon and manages to lay bare the murder plot and hidden intentions of other party.
Menon is judged innocent of the crime by court. After confronting Pavithran and promising
just retribution to the crime of killing Indulekha, Induchoodan returns to his father, who
now shows remorse for all his actions including not believing in the innocence of his son.
But while speaking to Induchoodan, Menon suffers a heart attack and passes away. At
Menon's funeral, Manapally Pavithran arrives to poke fun at Induchoodan and he also tries
to carry out the postponed last rituals of his own father. Induchoodan interrupts the ritual
and avenges for the death of his sister and father by severely injuring Pavithran. On his
way back to peaceful life, Induchoodan accepts Anuradha, (Aishwarya), the strong-willed
and independent-minded daughter of Mooppil Nair,as his life partner.

Devoothan
tells us a beautiful love story of Aleena and Maheswar which is brought to the audience
through Vishal Krishnamoorthy. As the story begins, we see Vishal Krishnamoorthy
(Mohanlal) a well reputed musician who is about to receive a popular music award for his
wonderful musical album Rhythm of Love. From there the director takes us back to the
past where we see a Vishal who has earned nothing in life except a large amount of debt.
Despite having a deep knowledge and passion in music he is struggling very much to build
a career of his own. He tried several businesses but all was in vein.
In this context, Vishal gets a letter from his old principal priest (principal achan) of the
college where he has studied and from where he was once expelled by Madam Angelina
Ignatius (Jayaprada) who runs the college in the memory of his father William Ignatius
(Kitty). It was an invitation rather request the principal to do a musical play for the
students of the same college which is written by the principal achan himself. There is a
special musical instrument called Seven Bells which is kept by Angelina in a chapel of

the college. She never allowed anybody to have even a look at the instrument for it was
that much precious for her. Vishal was accused of playing the seven bells which made
Angelina furious and thus he was terminated from the college. At first Vishal refuses to
accept the call because of his hatred towards the college but later he agrees and reaches
the college.
The story of the play that Vishal is about to direct is a love story of Mary and Nikhil
Maheswar. The story goes like Mary is the only daughter of a rich man who fell in love with
a poor young musician namely Nikhil Maheswar. Despite the dislike from her father she
became deeply intimate with Nikhil Maheswar. But when he went back to get the consent
of his parents for their marriage he never came back. Mary went on waiting for him. But
after Vishals interference into the play it gradually began to change. From the first day of
his arrival Vishal started to feel the presence of an unseen power around him. As he was
composing a song for the play at that night, he happened to hear a beautiful melodic
composition from the tape. Even after he turns it off, the music goes on from nowhere.
Realizing the shocking fact that it was the same symphony that made him expelled from
the college and that made his life to suffer so far. As the rehearsal of the play progress, in
a scene where Mary expresses her love to Maheswar, Vishal gets irritated by the name
Mary and replaces it with a new name Aleena which he extracts from the music he
heard last night.
At the next night Vishal is awakened from his sleep by the same music. He finds that it is
coming from the chapel where Angelina kept the seven bells. He immediately rushes to
the chapel to see who plays it. He saw nobody in the chapel but the seven bells is playing
by itself. Hearing the music Angelina reaches there and sees Vishal sitting in front of the
Bells. She again accuses him of playing it and tries to get him out of the college. But Vishal
decides to stay and find out the truth about the mystery.
Vishal asks the principal about how he got the name Nikhil Maheswar. The principal told
tells him that it was from an old poetry of Angelina about love, he got the name Maheswar.
It makes Vishal surprised. He doubts weather Angelina had any love affair with someone
before. Looking for somebody who knows about the past of Angelina and the seven bells,
he reaches an old priest. He tells Vishal that Angelinas actual name is Aleena. She got the
seven bells from her father William Ignatius as he got it by ancestry. William brought
someone from far to play the instrument. His name was Maheswar (Vineet Kumar).
Admired by his music Aleena fell in love with Maheswar which was protested by her father.
After six years of a divine love Maheswar left Aleena giving her his word that he would
return, but he never came back. Aleena is still waiting for him. Vishal now realizes why
Angelina keeps the seven bells like a precious treasure. Thus the story of Mary and Nikhil
Maheswar now became the story of Aleena and Maheswar.
Searching for some books about the seven bells in the college library, Vishal gets a piece
of paper with some musical notation from an old book. He feels it was the written by
Maheswar. Trying to play it on the instrument he understands it is the music that he often
hears at night. Suddenly he feels like he loses his sight. With the intuition he feels
Maheswar was blind. He reaches to Angelina and shows the notation to her. She admits

that it was written by herself and Vishal can never play that composition in seven bells.
She feels pity on him and tells him their love story.
At a night when Vishal was sitting in front of the seven bells, Sneha (Vijayalakshmi), the
student who plays role of Mary in the play and who is a fan of Vishals music reaches there
and requests to play the bells. Vishal reveals the truth that it was not he who plays the
instrument but someone else with no shape. It can be either Aleenas father or her lover
Maheswar, anyhow somebody wants to say something to someone.
Vishal had a dream vision of a cart one night. Asking about it to Angelina, he was brought
to see her old cart which she used to take Maheswar out. There he met Alberto (Murali),
Williams old stable man. Vishal feels something mysterious about Alberto. Vishal again
reaches the library to find more books about seven bells, he finds a human Skelton in a
glass rack. He is told by the principal that it was the workers who got it when they dig the
soil for laying foundation for a new hostel block. At last Vishal came to know from Alberto
that Maheswar was buried alive by himself and William. The Skelton he saw in the library is
Maheswars skelton. Unaware of all these facts, Aleena lays flowers to her father on his
tomb, and still waiting for her lover. When Vishal tells Sneha that he cannot let Aleena
know about the truth, the seven bells starts to play so terribly. Aleena now understands
the fact and she goes to the library hall where the skelton is kept. Vishal tries to stop her
but he is blocked by the spirit of Maheswar. In the end Maheswar takes Aleenas soul with
him as we see two doves flying to the sky.

Bhavani's cousin are in love. The murder of Bhavani's cousin Vishnu, is wrongly accused on
Balagangadharan (Lalu Alex), father of Sathyaprathapan. Sathyaprathapan's sisters
commits suicide and Sathyaprathapan turns against his father. He starts to help Bhavani's
family and mortgages his own house to finance her factory. A love develops between
Sathyaprathapan and Bhavani. But Bhavani's greedy father wants to destroy
Sathyaprathapan's family and tries to take their home. That is when Parameshwara
Maman shows up, Sathyaprathapan's mom requests Maman to prove Balagangadharan's
innocence. Parameshwara Mama and Sathyaprathapan finds Kuruvilla who witnessed the
murder being committed by Bhavani's father goons. Meanwhile we see that
Sathyaprathapan's mom faints and dies in the hospital. While in the hospital, his mom tells
how Balagangadharan had a different wife and he should ask them forgiveness. He storms
into Bhavani's house and accuses her dad, also trying to make her understand the truth
but she doesn't believe him and stands by her father. Then Sathyaprathapan says he
doesn't love her any more and vows that he will never trust a woman by remaining a
chronic bachelor forever.
Then film comes to the present time showing a legal battle between Sathyaprathapan
(now called SP) and Bhavani. Bhavani becomes furious when SP wins the legal battle to
get back his house. She threatens to destroy SP.
From here, the story moves to the day-to-day life of SP and falls into a comic track
throughout the first half. SP is now a successful businessman. SP has a stepsister, Sandhya
(Bhavana), who is his father's daughter from the other wife. He now lives for her. But she
doesn't know that SP is her brother, although she stays next door to him. Kuruvilla
(Innocent) is SP's aide and he too is a bachelor. Bhama (Rambha) comes to stay in the
hostel where Sandhya stays and tries to win the heart of SP. But SP considers her a
nuisance.
SP agrees to take care of Srikumar (Mukesh). He is the son of Parameshwaran Mama
(Janardhanan), who had helped SP to become a successful businessman. Srikumar is a flirt
and womanizer. He is now after Sandhya and agrees to stay with SP, when he comes to
know Sandhya stays next door to SP. Comical scenes recur throughout the movie, where
Kuruvila, who doesn't like Srikumar and his friend Ugran (Harisree Ashokan) staying with
them, tries to get them out of the house.
Bhama comes to know SP is sponsoring Sandhya's studies and confronts him. SP tells her
that Sandhya is his sister. Bhama then asks Sandhya to call SP for her birthday party. But
SP gets upset and confronts Bhama. Bhama then reveals that her sponsor was SP all the
while. During the birthday party, Bhavani comes and takes Bhama away. Then it becomes
clear that Bhama is Bhavani's sister. Rivalry arises between Bhama and Bhavani and
Bhama runs away from home and promises to help SP, but he tells her he has no hatred at
all. Then Bhama's family members come to take her forcefully, but is stopped by Srikumar
and SP.
That's when SP asks Sandhya to move to his house. Srikumar and Ugran is moved to the
guest house. Sandhya finally shows affection to Srikumar. One day SP and Kuruvilla catch
Srikumar trying to reach Sandhya through the balcony. That is where SP knows that both of

them love each other. And he tells that he knew it all the while and he arranged for
everything. He fixes the marriage of Sandhya and Srikumar. He transfers everything he
has to Sandhya's name because Srikumar's family thought Sandhya was an orphan. SP
tells everything to Parameshwaran Mama's family which is overheard by Sandhya who
runs home crying. SP upset runs to comfort her, where he explains how he will live his life
as an apology to her mother's curses. But Sandhya tells that her mother loved him and
told her to ask forgiveness if she sees him. Now Sandhya and SP re-unite as siblings.
During the marriage festivities, Bhavani and her brother Hareendhran (Biju Menon) come
to prevent the celebrations. Along with them comes the elder brother of Sandhya,
Shekarankutty (Lalu Alex). He challenges SP, saying that he has more right over Sandhya
as he is her brother, while SP is just a stepbrother. Shekarankutty then claims all of SP's
property, which SP is willing to give, provided Sandhya lives happily and marries Srikumar.
Bhavani's household members use Shekarankutty to take advantage of SP; first by trying
to snatch his company then trying to snatch his home. In the brawl, SP vows that Sandhya
will marry Srikumar and he will wipe off everyone who stands in the way. Bhavani then tells
SP that Sandhya will be married off to Hareendhran. Shekarankutty supports in the name
of revenge.
Sandhya, torn between two brothers, comes running when the brothers fight among
themselves on the account of who Sandhya will marry. She says she would marry anyone
that her brothers tell ber too because she cares about both of them. SP then says he know
what needs to be done to end the family feud, which should have been long ago. He then
marches to Bhavani's house and starts hitting Bhavani's dad thinking of killing him. In the
end, SP points at Kuruvilla and says he is the witness of Vishnu's murder. Bhavani's father
finally admits that he killed Vishnu and framed it on SP's father. Then SP pours kerosene on
Bhavani's dad and as he approach Bhavani, he is stopped by Hareendharan who begs for
his sisters life. Bhavani realizes her mistakes and goes to SP's house to apologize. But she
tells SP that only thing she can now offer is the marriage proposal of her sister Bhama to
SP. SP initially refuses when Srikumar tells that he'll also remain bachelor if SP doesn't
marry. SP finally agrees and tells him to go inside with Bhama.
