Dhanasekar was leading a joyful life in the same village along with his brothers Chandrsekhar and Ranjith and sisters Kavitha and Thamarai (also Shamitha). Manorama is their mother. Vinu Chakravarthy does not like Dhanasekar’s family and always picks up quarrels with them. One day, Vinu Chakravarthy poisons the local pond thereby killing Dhanasekar’s cows and oxen that drank water from the pond. Dhanasekar gets furious and lodges a complaint with the police following which Vinu Chakravarthy is arrested.

To everyone’s shock, the family comes to know that Thamarai is in love with Akash, the younger son of Vinu Chakravarthy. Dhanasekar and Manorama warn Thamarai to forget Akash and they plan to get her married immediately with someone else. But on the day of marriage, Thamarai elopes from home with Akash and Manorama dies on the same day as she could not tolerate this.

While Dhanasekar and his brothers perform the funeral of their mother, Thamarai comes along with Akash following their wedding. Ranjith gets furious seeing her and he runs towards them and chops the heads of both Thamarai and Akash in anger. All happened in a fraction of second and Ranjith could not believe that he killed his own sister. He then feels guilty and surrenders to the police and has been sentenced to 12 years of imprisonment. Dhanasekar and his family members leave the village and move to Tirupur where they earn well and the family comes back to the same village after 12 years. But they are worried that Ranjith’s life will be spoiled as no girl will be interested to marry him as he has been jailed. So they decide to get Jeeva married to him. Jeeva though not interested in the proposal, agrees to marry her uncle Ranjith for the well-being of her family.

Tamizh understands the family’s situation and decides to give up his love for Jeeva. But on the other hand, Jeeva decides to express her interest in marrying Tamizh. She meets Tamizh and conveys her love. But Tamizh says that he came to know about her family’s past and he also felt proud about Jeeva’s decision to sacrifice her life for the happiness of her family. He apologizes to Jeeva for confusing her predetermined mind in the name of love and he also requests her to marry Ranjith who is about to get released from jail soon.

The new home is completed and Mukesh Tiwari plants a bomb in the home, so that everyone can be killed as well as the home can be destroyed. Tamizh gets to know about Mukesh Tiwari’s plans and he alerts everyone. Also, Tamizh rushes into the house in search of the bomb and finds it after much struggle. He takes the bomb and throws it away before it could explode thereby saving all the family members and also the newly built home. The entire family thank Tamizh for his help. Tamizh leaves to his home on the next day.

After a few days, Dhanasekar comes along with his brothers Chandrasekhar and Ranjith, after getting released from jail to meet Tamizh and his father Vijayakumar inviting them for the house warming ceremony as well as for Jeeva’s wedding. On seeing the invitation card, Tamizh gets surprised to see his name as groom for Jeeva.

A flashback is shown where Ranjith after getting released from jail comes to meet his family. They share some good moments as he meets his family members after a period of 12 years as he never allowed anyone to meet him in jail except Dhanasekar. Ranjith is surprised on seeing Jeeva as she exactly resembles his sister Thamarai in looks. Ranjith also believes that Thamarai has reborn in the form of Jeeva and feels happy that he got back his lovable sister whom he killed out of anger. Also, Ranjith says that he does not want to marry any one and instead he prefers to stay single along with all the family members. The family members then decide to get Jeeva married to Tamizh. The movie ends with both Tamizh and Jeeva getting united.
