Aromal Chekavar and Thacholi Othenan, as well as heroines like Unniyarcha, are featured in the songs. The plots revolve around the fortunes of two families: the Puthoorams and the Thacholi Manikkoths. Despite the fact that the two families belong to two separate cultures, Thiyyar and Nair, they share a martial legacy.
