Kaliyil Alpam Karyam (1984)

Embedded with charged emotion and social relevance, this family-oriented drama delves into the twists and turns in the life of Vinayan, a sincere young man belonging to an exceptionally wealthy family. However, instead of indulging in the lavish lifestyle of the ultra-wealthy, he yearns for a soulful, simple life that is directly connected with nature. On the contrary, his brother spends time drinking and dancing at clubs, his sister always listens to the radio, and his parents are always busy. He gets tired of life in the city and moves to a village taking a small job as a village officer. There he falls in love with Radha, a feisty village girl with big dreams, who is completely enamoured by idea of a luxurious and glamorous life in the city. When conflict between them gets out of hand, they separate. Vinayan continues his simple existence in the village, while his wife moves to the city. Will this spell doom for his marriage or will Radha realise the joy and contentment that arises from simple living and return to her husband?
