Plot

During the British Raj, Vettaikara Thevar is a rich landlord who lives with his wife Devanayaki and younger sister Valliyammai. Unknown to his family, he is also Santhana Thevar, the masked vigilante leader of a group that terrorises the British colonizers in town and helps the locals. Joseph, a former soldier, joins Santhana Thevar's group and also befriends Vettaikara Thevar, unaware that both are the same man. Thevar is hurt during a mission and Joseph rescues him but is presumed dead. Eventually, the British learn his secret identity and Valliyammai is murdered in an attempt to draw out Thevar. Bound by a promise to Devanayaki, he surrenders. He escapes his death sentence at the last moment and is freed as India gains independence.
Years later, the Thevar family is now reduced to penury and Thevar's son Ranjith is a bitter young man. He resents the fact that his father's sacrifices have resulted in only misery for the family. The two clash due to their contrasting world views.
