Plot

In a military camp, captain Saravanan promises his brother-in-arms, captain Moorthy, who is dying ( he is seriously wounded following an exchange enlivened against poachers on the Indian border), to take care of his 6-year-old daughter Rani. Saravanan and Rani begin a big trip through the country, full of pitfalls. Because of his swiftness, Saravanan realises that who his daughter protects is the leader of an evil group. But they do not fall only upon ill-intentioned people, but quite the opposite, Saravanan and Rani meet on their way, Sarasu, a young woman without ties, devoid of any bad feelings, which will spare no effort, such as being the mother for Rani and will devote herself as an affectionate partner for Saravanan. Together, for the girl Rani, they go to surmount all the numerous obstacles which wait for them on the road.
