Kannan is the adopted son of a retired Captain. Sundar is the real son. Mallika is the niece of this rich man, who is engaged, at birth to Sundar. Mallika is secretly in love with Kannan. Malathi lost her father in an accident; she now lives with the widow as her adopted daughter. Malathi and Kannan fall in love as they share good bonding. Kannan and Sunder aren't on good terms. Sundar's behaviour towards Mallika and Malathi is not appropriate. Kannan warns Sundar, but an irritated Sundar kills Kannan and forcefully marries Mallika and Malathi. Years passed, he is blessed with kids and his wives name one son as Kannan. The film ends.
