Story:
The film begins with police arriving at Sivanandi's
(Sathyaraj) house questioning him about killing his daughter Lathapandi (Sri
Divya) because she ran away with the guy she loved. Bosepandi (Sivakarthikeyan)
and Kodi (Soori) are two friends who are the leaders of a group called
Varuthapadadha Valibar Sangam. One day, Bosepandi falls in love with Kalyani
(Bindu Madhavi) who is a teacher at a school. Bosepandi writes a love letter
for her but wants someone to go give it to her so that's when he finds
Lathapandi. Lathapandi gives the letter to her teacher and tricks Bosepandi
into believing many things.
Sivanandi fixes a marriage for Lathapandi but she is not
willing to marry because she is very young and she wants to study further.
Despite her attempts, nothing stops her marriage. Her marriage was posted on a
billboard and Bosepandi and Kodi decide to stop it. They go to the police
station and threaten the police that they will go to the commissioner. The
police talks to Sivanandi and makes him stop the marriage. One day, Lathapandi
delivers the news to Bosepandi that Kalyani is getting married. He decides to
move on in life, so he arranges for a Dindukal programme to happen in his area.
He sees Lathapandi in a sari and immediately falls in love with her. The same
night, the police reveals to Sivanandi that the person who stopped Lathapandi's
marriage was Bosepandi.
A day later he tells her about his love for her but she
ignores him and says no. Bosepandi walks away listening to a sad song when a
gang comes and bashes him. He later finds out that it was Sivanandi's gang who
hit him. So Bosepandi and Kodi decide to steal what Sivanandi considers his
'soul' and that is his gun. Bosepandi and Kodi steal the gun and run away and
cause a lot of trouble. Bosepandi then tells Lathapandi that he will return the
gun if she comes to their friends marriage and so he returns the gun without
anyone knowing. Lathapandi in return, goes to that marriage and takes lots of
photos with Bosepandi. Her mother warns her that this is not correct and she
should stop it. Sivanandi's cow falls into a well when he goes out of town so
Bosepandi helps to get it out. That night he stays with Lathapandi in her house
and they see Sivanandi sleepwalking. After that, they wake up in the morning
and they see Sivanandi walking again. This time he is awake but Bosepandi
thinks he's sleepwalking again and so he tells Sivanandi about liking his
daughter. Once he finds out that he is indeed awake, he runs out of that house.
Sivanandi then makes Lathapandi promise that she will only
marry the guy who Sivanandi tells her to marry and so she does promise her dad.
They fix a marriage for Lathapandi but on the night before her marriage, she
decides to run away with Bosepandi. When running away at night, they see
Sivanandi and he tells them to run away and gives them some money so that they
never come back. Sivanandi wants Bosepandi and Lathapandi to run away because
he doesn't want Lathapandi to marry the guy he has chosen for her and he can't
stop her marriage because he has too much respect in his village. He watches
them get married and then he walks home with blood on his shirt (the blood is
of a goat that he killed) and lies to everyone that he killed his daughter
because of his reputation. Bosepandi and Lathapandi return though and ruin
Sivanandi's plans and Bosepandi stated that he returned because his father
offered him more money. The film ends with Sivanandi and Bosepandi laughing
happily.
