Kannayiram (Tamil) / Kannappa Rao (Telugu) (Raghuvaran) is a powerful mafia lord. He, along with his sons Vijaya (Rocky) and Jaya (Devan), spread terror around the Chennai (Vishakhapatnam in Telugu version) town. They are known for land grabbing. One day, Vijaya and Jaya threaten Ramasamy (Sarath Babu) to give his land in which there is an orphanage, but Ramasamy refuses categorically. Unfortunately, he is brutally killed in front of Gowri (Ranjitha). The information reaches his brother Shiva (R. Sarathkumar), a short-tempered soldier. His superiors reject his request to leave the military camp, so he flees the camp. In the past, Shiva was in love with Uma (Sukanya), but she died in a plane crash. Later, Shiva complains against Kannayiram and hires lawyer Lakshmi Narayanan (Janagaraj). Lakshmi Narayanan's daughter Gowri, who is dumb, becomes the eyewitness of the case. What transpires next forms the rest of the story.

Release and reception
Captain was released on 25 February 1994,[3] alongside another Sarathkumar starrer Aranmanai Kaavalan.[4][5] Malini Mannath, writing for The Indian Express, panned the film: "An insipid screenplay, jerky narration, careless handling of the subject, lack of continuity in scenes and lacklustre performances make Captain one of the worst of [Sarath] Kumar's films".[6]
