Dhanakodi, an honest police officer, is transferred to a small village. In this village, Karunakaran, a rich landlord, spreads terror among the villagers and threatens them to obtain their lands. After spending five years in jail for a murder, Periasamy is back to his village. Dhanakodi wants to trap the heartless Karunakaran at any cost.
In the past, Periasamy was an orphan who lived with his only sister Lakshmi. Lakshmi, after finishing her studies in the city, came back to her village. Periasamy and Valli were in love. She is still against Karunakaran's conspiracy. Lakshmi and Karunakaran's son Chinnaiah fell in love and got married with Periasamy's support. Chinnaiah went missing, while Lakshmi became pregnant. Lakshmi found out that Chinnaiah was in his father's house and it was Karunakaran's master plan. Periasamy went there, but he was humiliated by Karunakaran. In the meantime, Chinnaiah stabbed Lakshmi, and Lakshmi gave birth before dying. Enraged, Periasamy killed Chinnaiah. What transpires later forms the crux of the story.
