Being a volleyball player comes to his rescue as he finds a part-time job as a volleyball coach in a women's college. His younger brother works in a TV channel, and Prabha is often compared to him by the family, which incurs his wrath. The siblings cross swords with each other. One day, the younger brother is killed, and the blame falls on Prabha. He is on the run and soon joins a goonda working as a henchman to an influential politician (Mahadevan). Prabha goes on a killing spree, killing one by one in the gang. Finally, a flashback reveals that they were the reason for his brother's death.

Reviews

The film received mixed reviews.[6] Behindwoods wrote:"Ayyanar stands in the passable league that can gratify the audiences, who are least, bothered about logics".[7] Sify wrote:"On the whole, Ayyanar is a mass film that is found wanting in tempo and packaging".[8]
