Mandakini Story

Aromal and Ambili got married. Aromal was thrilled to begin a life with Ambili. But on their wedding night, Aromal’s cousin noticed that Aromal seemed nervous about the first night and decided to give him alcohol, with help from Aromal’s brother-in-law. Aromal kept the alcohol mixed with fruits and lemon in his bedroom. Ambili, mistaking it for juice, drank it while Aromal consumed the actual juice kept in the kitchen. As a result, Ambili became tipsy and asked Aromal if he had any love affairs before marriage. Aromal said no, while Ambili revealed she had a serious love affair before marriage and wanted to meet her ex, Sujith Vasu, immediately.

The entire family soon became aware of this situation, and Aromal’s mother decided to help Ambili meet Sujith Vasu. Aromal’s mother, his sister Ajitha, and two other women accompanied Ambili in a jeep to find Sujith Vasu. On the way, Aromal’s mother asked why Ambili wanted to meet him. Ambili explained that she wanted to confront him because he had cheated on her. She recounted their love story.

Sujith Vasu had promised to marry her through a registered marriage but stopped answering her calls, claiming he was arranging money for their marriage. Ambili had offered to give him gold to solve the financial issues, which she did the next day. However, after receiving the gold, Sujith Vasu never contacted her again.
