A year passes, but the impasse between the two villages continues. The school teacher, who loves Muthupechi, understanding her emotional turmoil, sends her letters in Veerannan's name every week, which makes her happy and makes his family hope they will see him one day. She is also worried about Veerannan, who has not contacted her or his mother after running away. But her villagers take it as a prestige issue and protect her. Muthupechi gets depressed with these happenings and feels guilty. To pressure the Karisalpatti villagers, Malaichamy orders his villagers to send back women who are natives of Karisalpatti, which leads to several women coming back to Karisalpatti. However, the teachers plead with him and finally, run the school in the open. Enraged, Malaichamy closes the school run by him in Karisalpatti. The police intervenes, bans the Panchayat and imposes restrictions on the movement of people in the villages. When the Panchayat refuses, a fight erupts between the two villages. Unrelenting, Malaichamy comes with his villagers, camps at Karisalpatti and demands that Muthupechi be given to him. Fearing arrest, he runs away from the village and everyone assumes him to be dead. When Veerannan is returning after getting the necessary items, he is attacked by Malaichami's hoodlums. When Malaichamy challenges the Panchayat and demands Muthupechi, the Panchayat makes necessary arrangements to get Muthupechi married to Veerannan by the next morning so that this issue will end. The Panchayat refuses and advises Malaichamy to forget the bet. Malaichamy does not relent he approaches the Karisalpatti Panchayat and demands that Muthupechi should be married to his person. Mookkaiya, realising his mistake and the precarious situation he has created, kills his bull and himself. When Mookkaiya returns home, his wife berates him, saying he has no right to declare his daughter as a prize. Malaichamy demands that Mookkaiya get Muthupechi's man married to the winning man. Muthukalai feeds Mookkaiya's bull medicinal herbs, resulting in Malaichami's man subduing the bull. He manipulates Mookkaiya into announcing that the person who controls his bull will win Muthupechi as the prize. Upset with his bull being subdued by Veerannan, Malaichamy schemes to teach a lesson to Mookkaiya who constantly boasts about his bull. Though Mookkaiya is having an illicit relationship with Hamsavalli, he looks down upon them and is irritated with Muthukalai's desire.Р”Вuring a jallikattu festival in the village, Veerannan fights with a bull belonging to Malaichamy and wins a gold chain as a prize. Hamsavalli's brother Muthukalai asks Mookkaiya why he was not invited to perform the rituals of a suitor at Muthupechi's function. Veerannan, who had all the while ignored Muthupechi, now gets attracted to her and they start meeting each other secretly. All rituals take place and Muthupechi feels happy for having drawn the attention of Veerannan. The villagers support him and advise Mookkaiya to invite Ochayi and Veerannan. When Muthupechi attains puberty, Mookkaiya organises a ceremony but does not invite Ochayi and Veerannan, her suitor, to perform rituals as per tradition. However, Ochayi does not yield to the pressure as she feels that Mookkaiya, the womaniser, would squander it on his other women.Р”Р„ new teacher joins the village and falls in love with Muthupechi. Though Mookkaiya has a grownup daughter, he pressures his wife to get the dowry owed to him from Ochayi. Though Muthupechi secretly nurtures a desire to marry her maternal uncle Veerannan, he does not think along those lines as their families are not on talking terms due to a dispute over a field that was to be gifted as dowry to Mookkaiya at the time of his wedding. Mookkaiya Thevar has an extramarital affair with Hamsavalli and spends most of his time and money on her. Malaichamy Thevar, the chief of the neighbouring village, is the patron of the village school, where children from both villages study. Ochayi's daughter is married to Mookkaiya Thevar, whose daughter is Muthupechi. Ochayi, a widow, lives in Karisalpatti village with her son Veerannan, a school dropout.
