Three poor men (Ranga Rao, Sarangapani and Muthaiah) get together, form a partnership and establish a metal vessel factory. Rao gets hold of the authority and make the other two as wage earners. Rao's son (Radha) goes abroad for studies and comes back as a fully westernised man. He marries the daughter (Anjali Devi) of one of the wage earners as agreed upon earlier. But he is not interested in her and ill-treats her. The son of that wage earner (Gemini Ganesan) goes to Malaysia to learn a trade. When he returns he finds that his sister is married to Radha and undergoes ill-treatment. The other wage earner had two daughters. One of them, (Devika) is lost during a festival and was brought up by a railway porter (Durairaj and family. They make her a dancer so as to exploit rich men. They get hold of Radha. The other daughter (Saroja) and Ganesan become lovers. The porter family swindles all his wealth from Radha and he is reduced to living in a hut. He realises his folly.

Release and reception


Pangaaligal was released on 16 December 1961.[3] On 22 December, The Indian Express said, "A host of characters swarm around the story with little apparent purpose. But some of the roles, such as that of Anjali, S. V. Ranga Rao, Gemini Ganesh and a few others are acted well enough for their irrelevance to be overlooked".[4]
