It has also been telecasted in the National Network programme of Malaysian Televisions.

Plot

Patronized by a village tailor, a gatta gusthi wrestler becomes a local hero when he defeats all his opponents and claims the prettiest woman as his wife. As a story within a story it also portrays how the tailor makes a profit from the illiterate wrestler. He marries a girl, only for it to be revealed later that he has another wife and is not interested in her more than a trophy. He abandons his wife and the village when his wife falls for other men in his absence and she acknowledges that she does not love him any more. He leaves her his signature drawing of a conch shell. A frog gigging neighbour youth is entrapped by the girl's mother to marry her conceived daughter. It is way more than that, it is about an illiterate man thinking of his craft as being more than money.
