Plot

Maruthu has a little brother Ravi (Siva), the two brothers run a dance class. Maruthu is a kind hearted person, whereas his brother Ravi is a womanizer.
Maruthu then befriends with Viswanathan (Sivakumar) who he is a popular neurosurgeon. Viswanathan lives with his wife Parvathi (Srividya) and his brother Vijay (Nassar) who is a strict police officer. Viswanathan lost his only son Ashok during the village festival many years back, after this incident, Parvathi became mentally ill.

One day, Ravi tries to rape Kaveri at his home, Maruthu saves her in time and he severely hurts his brother in the head. Ravi then dies from serious head injury.
