The story revolves around a wealthy father who is waiting for the return of his son who had gone abroad ten years ago. A shrewd young man who comes to know this deceives the father by playing out a role pretending to be his son. Freely using the wealth of the old man, the young man tries to build a business empire around him by deceiving the entire business world, the relatives of the old father, his own parents and the girl friend in the village.
The teleplay highlights the fake characters in our society who mislead an entire society and also the importance of deep relationships between parents and children.
