Plot



The film begins with the saddened Rudhra (Udhaya) thinking of his lover Sindhu (Manya) and remembering his past.

Rudhra and his friends (Ramji, Vaiyapuri, Chaplin Balu and Thadi Balaji) were jobless young men and lived in a lodge together in Chennai. Vino then found a job abroad. One day, Rudhra got a job opportunity in a TV channel. The manager promised to hire him permanently if he successfully shot an annual festival in a remote village. There, Rudhra and his friends stayed in a house next to Sindhu's house for one day. Sindhu quarreled with them and stole the festival cassette to take revenge. After finishing the shooting, they went to stay with Rudhra's mother Kannamma (Kalairani), who was working in Sindhu's construction site. Sindhu taunted Rudhra at every occasion and one day, she made him fall in a trap. A wounded Rudhra is rushed to the hospital, and when his mother donated her blood for him, the doctor found that she was suffering from a kidney ailment and needed urgent kidney transportation. A guilty Sindhu paid for the surgery. A few months later, Rudhra could not leave his vulnerable mother in this condition. Sindhu apologized to Rudhra for her mistake and revealed her love to him, but Rudhra did not believe her. When Rudhra's friends scolded him for rejecting Sindhu's love, Rudhra explained that he wanted first to get a job and to offer food to his mother with his money. Before leaving the village, Sindhu swore that her love was true, and Rudhra told her to wait for him.

Rudhra was scolded by the TV channel for losing the cassette. He then worked hard as a street seller, postman, and waiter. When he returned to see Sindhu, her family told him that she had gotten married. Later, Rudhra saved Geetha (Charmila), from rowdies and she then helped him by giving him a loan to start a video company. Over time, he developed his business and became a rich man. Rudhra and Geetha got engaged, and Vino returned from abroad to meet his friend Rudhra. He told him that he unexpectedly married Sindhu in a police station, but they did not live together. Vino decided to help his friend marry Sindhu, while Geetha decided to cancel the wedding. Rudhra then came to know that Sindhu took poison when she knew about his marriage, and Sindhu's father took her to the US for better treatment.

Back to the present, Rudhra is still waiting for his lover Sindhu. The film ends with a newspaper showing that Sindhu died in a plane crash.
