Prabhu is a renowned neurosurgeon who lives with his wife Radha and his daughter Lakshmi. One day he meets his childhood friend Rajesh, an artist. Prabhu is very affectionate on Rajesh as he sponsored his medical studies. Radha does not like Rajesh or his paintings and artwork as it involves nudity and Radha feels it is too vulgar. One day Prabhu brings Rajesh home as he is very ill and forces Radha to take care of him. Radha refuses to touch him and nurse him. But Prabhu convinces her.
On their wedding anniversary, Radha sings a song and suffers breathlessness, Prabhu gives her a resuscitation and calms her to sleep. The next day in his hospital he is appreciated for his success in handling a critical surgery. Prabhu returns home happily, only to find a letter from Radha, that she had defiled herself by sleeping with Rajesh, and she is leaving Prabhu and she takes their daughter Lakshmi along. Devastated by this Prabhu becomes a nomad and wanders around. He meets a sage, who teaches him siddha and asks him to cure people for free. Whether Prabhu meets his wife and daughter and reunites with them forms the rest of the story.

Release and reception
editThandikkappatta Nyayangal was released on 16 September 1983.[7] Jayamanmadhan of Kalki wrote it was the director's fault that he tried to build a mud house without proper planning, relying on the iron pillars of Sivakumar's immense energy and Lakshmi's talent.[8] Sivakumar has named the film one of his personal favourites.[9][10]
