He is persuaded to keep watch while one of his friends Madhu steals money from his own house to set up a business. The robbery goes wrong as the people in the house wake up and his friend vanishes with the money while Achuthen is caught and charged for the robbery. He loses his job and the police keep picking him up for any crime in the village. Meanwhile, while clearing the donation box of the temple, he finds a letter addressed to the deity.
