==SynopsisPlot==
Azhagiri is raised by his sister Shanmugapriya following their parents' early death. Azhagiri is a college student, while Priya is a lecturer. Azhagiri is closely bonded with his sister Priya. Azhagiri goes to a village named Thambikottai for a NSS field trip where he meets Kanaga, and both fall in love. Kanaga is the younger daughter of a local goon Amirthalingam. Kanaga's elder sister Beeda Pandiamma is a rogue who creates ruckuses in the village often. Kanaga goes to Chennai for her studies but is kept under continuous monitoring by her sister's henchmen as Pandiamma and Amirthalingam find out about Kanaga's love affair. Azhagiri skillfully takes Kanaga away to his home. However, Kanaga is again taken away from Azhagiri's home by Amirthalingam. Priya is surprised to see Amirthalingam. Priya tells a flashback whereby they actually belong to Thambikottai and their father Shanmugam was a bus driver working under Amirthalingam who owned a transport service with several buses. However, all the buses were poorly maintained, and Amirthalingam bribes the officials to obtain the fitness certificates. Despite several attempts made by Shanmugam to convince Amirthalingam to properly repair the buses, he neglects. This infuriates Shanmugam, and he resigns as does not want to risk the life of passengers. Lakshmi is Shanmugam's wife. When Lakshmi travels in Amirthalingam's bus, the brake fails and the bus meets with an accident, and Lakshmi passes away. Amirthalingam's bus company is sealed by the government. Angered, Amirthalingam bombs the bridge that connects Thambikottai with the land, and hence, no buses could enter the village unless the bridge is repaired. Shanmugam is also killed by Amirthalingam's men. Now, Azhagiri fights against Pandiamma's henchmen and rescues Kanaga. In the fight, Pandiamma is accidentally killed by one of her henchmen. Azhagiri also fights against Amirthalingam and helps reconstruct the broken bridge in Thambikottai.
Azhagiri ([[Narain (actor)|Narain]]) and his sister Shanmugapriya ([[Meena (actress)|Meena]]) are siblings who live only for each other. Azhagiri is a student, and his sister is a lecturer. Saissa ([[Santhanam (actor)|Santhanam]]) and the crew form his sidekicks, and Valayapatti ([[M. S. Bhaskar]]) is their professor who invariable falls quarry to Saissa's unwitting jokes and intentional pranks. Azhagiri goes to Thambikottai on an NSS field trip. There he falls in love with Kanaga ([[Poonam Bajwa]]), who is the daughter of Amirthalingam ([[Rajendran]]), a rich don of the village. Amirthalingam tries to kill government officers who want to repair a damaged bridge that connects the village with the outside world. The bridge has a connection to Azhagiri, Shanmugapriya, and their dead father Shanmugam ([[Prabhu (actor)|Prabhu]]).
