In ‘Bhagyadevatha’, directed by Sathyan Anthikkad, Jayaram plays a poor cable operator who marries the daughter of a rich government official in the hope of getting a handsome dowry. He has many a family burden on his tired shoulders, all of which, he hopes, could be settled with the dowry he is sure to get.

But, all his hopes come to naught as the story takes an unexpected turn just after the marriage. Kaniha, the heroine in Mammootty starrer ‘Pazhassi Raja’, plays the onscreen wife of Jayaram. Most of the film was shot at the scenic locations in Kuttanad. The film, featuring most of Satyan’s regular ensemble cast, is all set to release on April 23.
