Plot summary
Twin sisters Vaani and Rani (Raadhika Sarathkumar), after the loss of their parents are brought up by their paternal uncle, Manikkam (Ravikumar). Vaani aspires to become a lawyer, therefore Rani sacrifices her education so that Manikkam will make Vani a lawyer. Over the years, Vaani passes out as a successful Lawyer and gets married to Bhoominathan (Venu Arvind), a granite businessman, while Rani gets married to Bhoominathan's stepbrother, Swaminathan (Babloo Prithviraj). Meanwhile, Manikkam's son, Manohar (Sivaji Manohar) falls in love with Bhoominathan's sister, Jyothi (Roopa Shree) and elopes with her, where Rani is forced to get marry, which results in several problems, resulting in Vaani and Rani earning the wrath of both their uncle and their mother-in-law, Angayarkanni (Shanthi Williams), while Vani refuses to speak with Rani thereafter.
Over the years, Vaani and Bhoominathan turn out to be very successful, while Rani and Swaminathan are not too successful since all of Swaminathan's business turn out to be failures. However, they all live together in the same house. Vaani has two sons, Surya Narayanan (Arun Kumar Rajan), an unemployed and childlike lawyer and Gautham (Vicky), the college bad boy and troublemaker, while Rani has three children, Saravanan (Maanas Chavali), Selvi (Nikhila Rao) and Thenmozhi (Neha). Problems continue to erupt in the house due to Bhoominathan's ego against his stepbrother, while the entrance of Anagayarkanni, who is jealous of Vaani and Rani's close relationship despite Vaani's refusal to ever directly address Rani, further worsens the problems, by conspiring against them and trying to separate them. Meanwhile, Selvi falls in love and under dire circumstances marries Rajesh (Guhan Shanmugam) with only Vani as a chance witness, causing a rift in the family, and their eventual separation, resulting in Vaani and Rani to getting separated. However, Bhoominathan later realises his faults, turns over a new leaf and sends his mother away and tries to get the family together. They get together but live in separate houses. However, problems continue to haunt them in the form of a vengeful Angayarkanni and Jyothi and Kadhir, a local don who has his vengeance against Saravanan. Gautham threatens Kadhir to leave his family alone. After many incidentes and obstacles Gautham, who secretly loves Pooja, marries Pooja to rescue Saravanan from Kadhir. Kadhir turns into a good man after Pooja's marriage. While Jyothi's daughter Poongodi is involved in a love triangle between Karthi (Rajkumar), Manohar's son, and Saravanan. Selvi also faces numerous problems through her father in law, Kaali (Baboos), Alamelu and Shenbagam (Sumangali and Shreedevi), Shiva (Jai Ram) and Geetha, and later on through Kaali's daughter, Malathy (Minnal Deepa). Surya gets married to Dimple. She hates Vaani and does everything against her mother-in-law.
