Summaries

  • The story revolves around two Kandyn clans that lived during the early years of 1920. They were the masters of a form of martial arts and retained the ownership of the art as one of their clan's entities.
  • The Chief of the Sudaliya (Sriyantha Mendis) clan did not have children. However, he wanted someone to master the form of the martial art known to him. He decides to teach the art to his sister's son. Hethupala (Buddhadasa Withanarachchi) was a traditional teacher who volunteered to educate village children. He too had mastered martial art. Rana (Kamal Addaraarachchi) is one of his students, who is in love with Swarnapali (Damitha Abeyratne) studying in the same class. The teacher also has a soft corner for her. Therefore he did not like the affair between the girl and Rana. So Hethupala, the teacher, punishes Rana even for tiny mistakes. The Sudaliya Chief's nephew who was mastering the art did not hesitate to teach the same to Rana in his free time, as a gesture of return for support to make friendship with a village woman. Knowing that their family's entity had been given to an outsider, the Chief kills his nephew. Rana, who knows the story, hides in the jungle. Hethupala the teacher, who was not happy with the incident, challenges the Chief. Hethupala dies in this incident, and Rana decides to punish the Chief who put his teacher's life to an end. He challenges the Chief and decides a date for the fight. However, the Chief does not come, as he meets with sudden death. Rana who was waiting for the arrival of the Chief falls into the hands of the Police and dies of a gunshot. The story ends with the arrival of Suwarnapali to the village and continuing in the school as a trained teacher.
