Plot

Archana (Lakshmi) is the managing director of her company and puts a lot of weight into perceived status and class distinctions. She also has very exacting standards for her employees and is very suspicious of people who are poor. Sanjeevi (Jaishankar) lives in one of the buildings owned by Archana and makes it a point to constantly undermine her plans. He also convinces Murali (Murali), a young man searching for a job, to work with him. Sanjeevi plots to bring together Murali and Archana's daughter Radha (Ilavarasi). After some initial obstacles, the two fall in love, much to Archana's displeasure. The young lovers soon come to learn the complicated history behind Archana and Sanjeevi as well as how they fit into this long-standing feud.
