Perspective
The story's main plot is derived from Em Magan, which revolves around rival families and their problems.
The non-screened flashback: Pandian works as a laborer in Muthuvel-Sakthivel Grocery Shop. He falls in love with their only sister Gomathi and they both elope and get married. Their children include Kuzhali, Saravanan, Senthilnathan, Kathiravan, and Arasi. Pandian and Muthuvel-Sakthivel hold grudges against each other due to past conflicts with each other. Pandian runs his Grocery store named "Pandian Stores" and wants to succeed. He expects obedience from his children. Gomathi's youngest brother Pazhanivel stays with them as he loves his sister's family. Pandian builds a house in front of Muthuvel-Sakthivel house, which irritates them.
On screen story: Conflicts began when Senthilnathan, the second son of Pandian decides to marry Meena without the knowledge of his family. His younger brother Kathiravan helps them. Pandian goes to their house and punishes Kathiravan for helping them instead of Senthil and Meena. Soon, Pandian admits them to his house, but he has a strong hatred towards Kathiravan. Meena, a government employee who regularly goes to work by bus befriends Raji, the only daughter of the Muthuvel-Sakthivel family.
One day, Raji elopes with all the gold ornaments in her house with a man. Gomathi, Meena, and Kathir who have gone for a family function accidentally see Raji in a hotel. They learn that Raji had been betrayed by the man she loved for the gold ornaments. On considering both the family's prestige, Gomathi calms her and decides to marry Raji, her niece to her son Kathir. Kathir does so on the insistence of his mother. Back at Pandian's house, they are both rejected then later accepted by Pandian's family. This marriage has now further widened the conflict between the two families. Raji's family asks for the gold she took but Kathir saves her by saying that he sold all the gold.
Pandian questions Kathir's financial contribution to the family. Despite Kathir being a college student, he joins a part-time food delivery job and gives his entire salary to the family and Raji. Kathir was also helpful to Raji with her studies. Meena also becomes supportive of them. Soon, the family seeks an alliance for Saravanan. And, they met up with Thangamayil's family. Thangamayil's parents were greedy regarding the Pandian family's wealth. They pretend to be rich and make duplicate gold ornaments for her marriage. After the marriage but Meena and Raji doubted it from the beginning of the marriage itself. Thangamayil was overprivileged by Pandian because she was selected as the best daughter-in-law by him. Thangamayil takes the opportunity and always proves her privilege. On her mother's advice, Thangamayil creates problems in the family. Raji decides to take tuition at their home so that she can financially help for Kathir. She told her idea to Gomathi. But Gomathi failed to convey it to Pandian and get permission. Pandian gave a list of works for Senthil to do at free time at Chennai. Though Meena wants to spend time with him, Senthil had much work to do. So, he switched off his phone and took Meena to Marina Beach. Meena sent their pictures to Raji. Mayil also saw the picture. Silently Mayil informs Pandian about Senthil who is not attending Pandian's phone call and spends time at the beach. So Pandian scolds Senthilnathan. Mayil laughs out loud which intensifies Meena's hatred towards her. All of them doubt and dislike her behavior, except Pandian and Saravanan. Disobeying Gomathi's words, Mayil daily brings lunch to her father-in-law Pandian and her husband Saravanan at their workplace. Gomathi dislikes this. Meena and Raji develop Gomathi's temper and she scolds Mayil for disobeying. She then orders not to deliver lunch to Pandian.
After that, Raji decides to help Kathir by taking tuition, with the help of Meena. Meanwhile, Sakthivel finds out about Raji's tuition and tells both Muthuvel's family and Gomathi's family. Both families are in shock after finding out about this, then both Raji reveals that Kumar kidnapped both Raji and Meena so that he can stop Saravanan's marriage, when he meant to actually kidnap Thangamayil.
After that, when Raji was talking to her friends on the way to her tuition, she spots Kannan, her ex-lover and the one that stole her jewelry, and chases after him on the road, but accidentally falls down. So both she and Kathir decide to file a police complaint against Kannan for stealing her jewelry, and then both Sakthivel's and Pandian's families find out about Kathir not stealing the jewelry, they find out it was actually Kannan who stole all the jewelry, but then after a while, both of them ended up getting some of the jewelry that he still had left. For Kathir, she decides to sell it, but then Sakthivel notices and starts an argument with Pandian's house, and then Raji lashes out at both Muthuvel and Sakthivel for insulting Kathir, and so because of this, she decides to reveal the truth about her marriage.
Kumar then falls in love with Arasi, with the help of both Sakthivel and Suganya, Pazhanivel's wife. While both Kumar and Arasi come out of the movie theater, Saravanan spots both of them too, and Saravanan tells everyone, causing both Gomathi and Pandian to lash out at Arasi for disobeying their words, and for being in love with a kidnapper. Meanwhile, Pazhanivel lashes out at Kumar for brainwashing Arasi and falling in love with her. Then after a while, Pandian decides to arrange a marriage for Arasi to his sister's son, but the night before the wedding, Kumar sends photoshopped pictures of both him and Arasi, and blackmails her to come to her and apologize, along with Suganya, or otherwise he will embarrass her family by showing everyone the pictures. And so because of this, Suganya sends Arasi to him, causing her to be tricked by Kumar by being kidnapped. Then the next day, Kumar brings Arasi back home, but then makes up lots of big lies, causing Arasi to have no other choice, but to put on the thali, causing both families to be in shock, when they didn't get married at all, they faked it. The next day, both Meena and Raji decide to meet Arasi in the temple and so Arasi tells the truth about what actually happened with her and Kumar.
One day, Kuzhali, Kathir, and Meena spot Kumar with another girl, and so they all lash out at Kumar for cheating on Arasi. Arasi then reveals that she and Kumar didn't get married at all, but rather she decided to put the thali to get Kumar in trouble for all the trouble he has caused to their family. Then, Pandian decides to file a complaint against Kumar for what he did to Arasi, causing him to go to jail.
