## Plot[edit]

In Tiruvannamalai, Viji (Vijay Anand), Ila (Jinga), Surya (Perarasan) and Sundaram (Hussain) are best friends and jobless youngsters. They love drinking alcohol so they often lie to their family and they give them money. Whereas in Arakandanalur, Ramana (Sriman) is a wealthy rice mill owner and lives with his sister Soundarya (Athulya). His best friend is Thiru (Harish) and he can do anything for him thus it makes his family jealous. Ramana then marries Dakshayani (Jayashree).

One year later, Ramana cannot digest that Thiru betrayed him so he becomes a drunkard. Surya falls in love with Soundarya at first sight. One day, Ramana and the four friends have an altercation in a bar. Later, Jinga has stomach pain and he is rushed to the hospital. There, the doctor informs them that Jinga has a tumour in his stomach and it has to be removed immediately. Jinga's family has no money for the operation, so his friends ask money to their family but they don't believe them and refuse to give money. At the hospital, Ramana feels bad for Jinga and pays for his operation. Thereafter, the four friends decide to earn money and Ramana helps them financially to start a business. The four friends feel sorry for Ramana because of his drinking habits and Soundarya tells them the reason. Ramana's family and his wife felt jealous about Thiru and they tried to brainwash Ramana. When Thiru came to know about it, he decided to break their friendship.

The four friends try their best to save Ramana and Thiru's friendship. Ramana eventually makes up with Thiru and Soundarya accepts Surya's love.
