Manu is a passionate and great kick-boxer, where he later meets Alamelu "Andhra", a Telugu girl from Andhra Pradesh and starts to fall in love with her. Manu's happy life is suddenly jolted when Meena dies of a heart attack. On her deathbed, Meena tells Manu to meet Prathap, who was a kickboxing champion that won the championship six times in a row and is presently a kickboxing coach. Manu reluctantly accepts.

When Manu meets Prathap, he learns that he has another wife and a daughter, and also is happily settled with them. Manu gets a job as a janitor and juice provider at his father's kickboxing academy. Anand is Prathap's best student, and he is sure that Anand will win the championship. Later, Manu finds out that Anand had impregnated his step-sister and abandoned her, and also abandons Prathap by getting another master and other sponsors. Prathap is attacked by several of Anand's sponsors, where Manu later beats them up, making Prathap learn that Manu is a great kick-boxer.
