For this sole purpose, Valiya Thamburam bribes the Chief Minister to make Mahendra Varma a minister in the current state government.

Once in power, Mahendra Varma tries to be independent from the Chief Minister's government and helps his friend Jayan, who is against the policies of the Chief Minister.
