In Chennai, the police inspector takes Tamilarasan to court and the judge asks him about the three people he had kidnapped. A few years ago, Tamilarasan was an advocate living with his family in a big house. Tamilarasan and his relative Gowri (Siniya) were in love, and their family agreed for the marriage. One day, Tamilarasan had a brutal fight with Sathya's brother Kesavan (Kesavan), and Kesavan became mentally ill after the fight. A vengeful Sathya decided to take Tamilarasan's house, and Sathya's two other brothers killed Tamilarasan's entire family. They took his lover Gowri to the police station, and with a corrupt police inspector (O. A. K. Sundar), they tried to rape her, but she killed herself to save her honour. When Tamilarasan came to know about it, he killed Kesavan in his house and beat everyone in the police station. Tamilarasan then kidnapped the police inspector and Sathya's two brothers. The police then arrested Tamilarasan for kidnapping. Back to the present, the judge decides to postpone the trial and transfer him to Puzhal Central Prison. Sathya's henchmen kidnap Tamilarasan outside the court, and they then torture him in front of his house. Tamilarasan defeats his henchmen, and he reveals to Sathya that he had buried his brothers in a hall that he had built just in front of his house. Tamilarasan then kills Sathya by burying him alive in the hall, and he decides to become a vigilante who fights against the evils in society.
