The teledrama revolves around Wimale, who goes to town following the untimely death of his father. He becomes a helper to a mason and falls in love with Sachithra, a girl from a family which provide meals to the workers in the building site. Soon Wimale gets married to Sachithra and returns to the village with her but the setting is not suited for the new bride who was brought up in an urban background. Wimale and Sachithra go back to the town and Sachithra leaves for a job in the Middle East. This leads to the break up of Wimale’s family.
Meanwhile Sirimal, Wimale’s younger brother takes up the responsibilities of fatherless family. He looks after his mother Rathu Hamine and younger sister Indira. However they are too worried about the future of Sirimal who sacrifices his future for the sake of the family.
While Wimale in the urban setting runs after the money and wealth, Sirimal in the village represents the epitome of selfless love and goodwill. Who will be the winner of these two extremes? Awaits the lat episode of ‘Degammediyawa’.
