Plot



Subash (Arjun) is portrayed as a troublemaker. His brother, Rajasekhar (Siddique) is a government minister. Their father, (Jaishankar), is a judge who was previously involved in a scandal. Subash falls in love with Savitri (Revathi), a middle-class Brahmin girl. Although Savitri loves Subash, she wants to marry someone successful and ambitious. Subash subsequently joins the Army and becomes a military officer. Upon his return from a military camp, his family share the news that Savitri and her father have died in a mysterious accident. Arumugasamy (Prakash Raj), an honest politician, a member of Rajasekhar's opposition party, as well as Subash's best friend, are also believed to have died. Subash suspects Thangamani (Manivannan), Arumugasamy's right hand, as the killer. Subash finds Savitri in Thangamani's house and rescues her.

Savitri reveals that Rajasekhar is a corrupt politician involved with terrorist groups. Rajasekhar's henchmen kill Arumugasamy, and Thangamani hold Savitri captive. Heartbroken, Subash resolves to punish his brother and save his country from terrorists. Later, Savithri has an accident and loses her memory. Subash marries Savitri in front of his family. He follows his brother and learns of his plans to kill all the religious leaders of India in the peace 'yatra'. Subash and his father try to expose Rajasekar's plans, but Rajasekar's partner uses his influence to get orders for Subash to return to the army base immediately. To obtain additional leave for Subash, his father commits suicide. Subash's leave is extended to attend the funeral, allowing Subash to stop his brother's plan. Subash kills Rajasekar and his associates. Finally, Subash resigns from his commission, having attained the rank of Colonel.
