They drink frequently, of which their [[brahmin]] neighbour Ananthapadmanabhan ([[Suresh Gopi]]) complains. One day, while Boney is away, Unnikrishnan and Vinod find a female baby on their doorstep, with a note telling them to raise the child. They manage to cover it up, and suspect that it is an illegitimate child of Boney. When Boney returns, they give him the child and lock themselves up in their room. Boney confesses that he has never had any such affair with a woman, and they conclude that the girl is an orphan, but no orphanage accepts her. They try to abandon the child but fail. They hand her to a man who claims he will take her to Germany, only to find out that he is a fraud. They fight him and get the baby back. They appoint a babysitter ([[Innocent (actor)\|Innocent]]).

	~~The story takes a turn when~~ the ~~baby's real mother~~ Maya and her ~~father tries~~ to ~~claim~~ the ~~baby~~. ~~To their surprise~~ they ~~also learn~~ that the ~~father is their neighbor Ananda Padmanaban~~.		An old man ([[Bahadoor]]) visits saying that the child is the illegitimate daughter of his daughter Maya ([[Urvashi (actress)\|Urvashi]]) and Ananthapadmanabhan, whom they had believed to be completely innocent. Maya wants her daughter desperately, but the trio are unwilling to return her. The trio uncover surprising secrets about the relationship between Ananthapadmanabhan and Maya, which later broke. After a lot of disturbance from Maya and her father, they reluctantly return the child on a condition that Maya and Ananthapadmanabhan must live together with the child, and end up dull and depressed.
