Plot
The protagonist Ramachandran returns from jail and kills his corrupt boss, who had implicated him in a criminal case that destroyed his family. He abducts the victim's daughter, Sarala, and hands her over to a brothel, where she becomes a prostitute.
He shifts to a new location, assumes the name Venu, and becomes a criminal. There he befriends taxi-driver Balakrishnan, who is the brother of Sarala and the son of the man Ramachandran murdered. Each man is searching for his enemy, little knowing that it is his best friend. Venu begins a sexual relationship with Krishnan's fiancée Geetha. Thamphi, who is a smuggler, tries to confiscate the land of the poor people, demanding a lakh he knows they cannot pay.
Ramachandhran brings the money and settles him. Thamphi fails to obtain the property and discovers that the money is actually his and had been stolen by Venu, plans revenge. On the day of Geetha and Krishnan's marriage Sarala revels that Venu is Ramachandhran and he is the reason she rents herself. Thamphi arrives and captures Geetha and Sarala. Krishnan and Ramachandhran join hands and win over Thampi, rescue the girls, and hand Thamphi to the police.
It is revealed that Sarala is Ramachandhran's sister who had been kidnapped by Balagandaran; however, he pitied her and looked after her. Ramachandran feels guilty and hits his head with a rock, his blood dripping on Sarala's face. Sarala forgives him. The police do not arrest Ramachandhran, because he had been imprisoned despite his innocence. Ramachandhran marries Geetha and Krishnan marries Sarala.
