Sthreepadham

Balasudha (Shelley Kishore) is the third daughter of Jaychandran Nair. Her siblings are Harikrishnan,Jayasudha and Ajayan. She is in a relationship with their family friend's son (with knowledge of the family) Sooraj (Arun G Raghavan) whose sister Preethi is Bala's best friend. Their marriage is fixed. Suddenly as a shock Jaychandran Nair loses all his properties and wealth and is forced to shift into a rental house. Their elder son Harikrishnan(Naresh Eswar) is forced to go to Kuwait to provide for the family. Due to family clashes between them Bala's and Sooraj's marriage is cancelled and they both part ways (despite their strong attempts to convince their families).

Balasudha tries to commit suicide but is saved on time. Her family starts seeing her as sort of a burden as they struggle with their income now. She is forced into an arranged marriage. Venugopan comes to meet Bala in an arranged function of the family and their marriage is fixed. Although Bala and her brother in law (Manoj) tries to convince her parents it didn't work out. Despite VenuGopan being a little too old and also not investigating much about him and his family Bala is forced to marry him.

After her marriage she moves in with Venugopan's house in Mulavukad. Her sad destiny continues as we learn that Venugopan and his brothers and alcoholics and that their mother (her Mother in law) is the root of all evils in the family. On her first day there Bala (who is a vegetarian) is forced to clean and cook raw meat and fish. Her sister in law (Anila - Venugopan's brother's wife) warns her about her life there (from this we can see that she is also a victim of constant physical and verbal attacks from her in laws).

On their first night Venugopan gets heavily drunk and he gets into their room. The lonely Bala is frightened and disgusted at Venu's actions. Unfortunately on that same night Bala gets raped by him. Every night Venugopan gets mad and he brutally tortures Bala as he is constantly paranoid searching for her 'jaran' (love affair). He blames her for cheating him by aligning her name with every single man she sees, including her brothers and father. Whenever they went to visit any of Bala's relatives Venugopan says Bala is in an affair with the males in her family and this continues day by day with the newspaper boy, milk boy, postman and which ever man Bala speaks to. The tortures continues as Bala slowly and painfully realise that Venugopan is not mentally well.

On the day Venugopan sets to go to Pune (as he works there) Bala tells him that she will resume her job as a teacher in the school near her parents’ house and he objects it by blaming that she's in a love affair with the male teachers of her school and beats her up. As Venu leaves Bala packs her bags and leaves for her house. There she sees her parents and brother (Ajayan) who sees her as a disturbance and refuses to fully believe what she says. They make several attempts to make her go back.
