gave his all to God, tries to control Devan through her daughter. She interferes in his program booking which he does free if it is a temple by charging exorbitant amount without Devan's knowledge. She steals a couple of gold blocks Devan had bought to make armor for his god. She steals half the diamonds Devan has bought to make vel for Muruga. Ponnan saves her hide by taking the blame but she eventually gets caught. When she justifies that they were ruined thanks to similar nature of her husband, Devan points out that they are leading a rich and luxurious life thanks to God's grace attained by her husband's selfless service. Things escalate when Kirupananda Variyar comes to ask for donation but is forced to return empty handed by Valliammai and her mother. They come to a point where Devan goes to hit Valliammai and she swears on Muruga that he should never touch her. He leaves her with the property saying she chose the property over him and she can have it instead of him. He also says it was his god who elevated him from someone who did not have a quarter of a rupee to someone who can do temple services for 4 lakhs. He also challenges that his god will elevate him to someone who would do service for 40 lakhs. He leaves the house. Valliammai realizes her mistake and goes to the temple. She gives off all her jewels and money to the temple and prays to the God for return of her marital bliss. The Vel that devan had donated falls over her when a peacock flies in. Devan saves her by removing her from the path without realizing it is his wife. When he does, he goes on to attempt to kill himself for having broken a promise made in the lord's name. Kirupananda Variyar interferes and makes Devan see that it was God's intention that he should rejoin with his wife and live together as the place he touched her was a temple and the reason he touched her can be attributed to peacock & Vel, both God's attributes. Right then, Gopalakrishnan comes and gives him an amount of 5 lakhs as an advance for an overseas contract worth 40 lakhs for his songs. Valliammai truly realizes the power of Devan's devotion, faith and drops the money at the lord's feet
