Synopsis
[edit]Veera is a young girl who lives with her mother, two sisters and brother. The family revolves around Pandiyan, who, along with his mother, defends Veera's childish antics. Maaran drinks alcohol and spends half his time roaming around town, much to his father's disapproval. His aunt is the only one that offers some support to him, along with his brothers.
When Pandiyan dies in a road collision caused by Maaran, the tale of events that cause both Veera and Maaran to marry, whilst her older sister Kanmani looks for revenge against Maaran form the premise of the story.
Veera found out the truth about Maaran did not cause Pandian's accident, that is Raghavan did. So, Veera falls in love with him.
Brinda later found out that Maaran did not cause Pandian's accident, rather Raghavan did and therefore begins to respect him. Still, Kanmani looks for revenge against Maaran without knowing the truth about Pandian's accident.
Kanmani found out the truth about Maaran did not cause Pandian's accident, that is Raghavan and she then understood how Veera loves Maaran and Brinda respects him.
Kanmani feels sorry for him and asks for Maaran's forgiveness. So, her revenge is canceled and she starts supporting him and all are now aware that Maaran is a kindhearted, innocent and hero, except his father Ramachandran.
They try to convince Kanmani to come home and live with Raghavan. But she refused until Maaran convinced her.
But for the first time, Kanmani avoids and ignores Raghavan just like Veera avoids Maaran. But Kanmani still respected and supported him. Finally, Ramachandran finds out the truth about Pandian's accident that is not Maaran, it is Raghavan did. They arrested Raghavan and Ramachandran is very heartbroken and realises that Maaran is a good person and feels sorry for him. Kanmani tries to convince Ramachandran to forgive Raghavan because it was an accident and when she was guilty, ashamed she tells the whole truth about her revenge. Not only that, she tries to tell Ramachandran to understand Maaran and he asks for forgiveness.
His father forgives Maaran and Raghavan. But actually, Viji killed her brother Pandian not Raghavan. They all become aware of that and Kanmani later loves Raghavan, with everyone becoming happy.
