Soon, Anand and Jyothi become good friends, they slowly fall in love with each other but they are unable to reveal their love. Sukran is in love with Jyothi too. One day, Jyothi helps Anand to pay his college fees. Being jealous of their friendship, Sukran starts to get into a fight with Anand at the college. Jyothi stops their fight and she claims that she is in love with Anand. Sukran then informs Jyothi's family that Jyothi is in love with her college mate Anand. Her family refuses to let her go to college and locks her inside her room. Her uncle decides to marry her and her mother advises Jyothi to forget Anand.
In the past, when Jyothi was studying in Ooty, Jyothi's sister Gayathri and the poor man Raja fell in love with each other. Jyothi's father Rajadurai (Vinu Chakravarthy) was hell bent to save his family's prestige at any cost, so he sent henchmen to beat up Raja. James (Raghuvaran) intervened and saved Raja from the henchmen. James then pleaded Rajadurai to accept for their marriage but Rajadurai refused. James was later killed by Rajadurai's henchmen, whereas Gayathri and Raja were brutally murdered by Rajadurai, therefore Rajadurai was sent to jail.
