Plot
Vijay (Arjun), a carefree and frolicsome youth, is sent by his father Deenadayalan (Ravichandran) in Ooty to work and becoming a responsible businessman. There, he falls in love with the college student Anjali (Vineetha). Her brothers Devaraj (Mohan Raj) and Vimal Raj are dangerous criminals and they are against their love from the fact that Vijay's father is a police officer. Thereafter, Devaraj is sent to jail so his brother appoints the lawyer Karnaa (Arjun), who is disabled and very sensitive.
Later, Karnaa falls in love with the schoolteacher Amudha (Ranjitha), after few quarrels among them. One day, Deenadayalan sees Karnaa at the court who is identical to his son Vijay. In the past, Deenadayalan had twin boys but abandoned one of the twin babies because he was disabled. Karnaa is upset when he learns the truth and is now determined to win the case in front of his father. He ultimately wins the case and Devaraj is eventually released. Thereafter, Deenadayalan discloses the truth to his wife Lakshmi, who wants to bring back her son Karnaa at any cost.
Meanwhile, Vijay is arrested by the police because of Devaraj's conspiracy. Karnaa rejects his parents' pleas and finds it outrageous to abandon a baby due to his handicap. Then, Karnaa promises to help Vijay, but he advises Vijay to escape from the jail. In the meantime, Devaraj shows his secret illegal business to Karnaa and Vijay takes some photos of his factory. Afterwards, Devaraj's goons kidnap their parents, Karnaa's adopted mother and Amudha. Vijay and Karnaa finally save them and send Devaraj to jail.
