Plot
Shiva and Shakthi meet in an automobile accident and instantly hate each other, but conspire to help Shiva's brother Sundhar who has fallen in love with Shakthi's sister Meenakshi. Following a series of misunderstandings, Meenakshi's marriage to Gautham is called off and the new match proposed. Meenakshi's parents agree but Sundhar's mom Subatra insists that Shiva marry first as the eldest son. Though a woman hater with no interest in marriage, Shiva says he will marry his employee, Nithya.
Shakthi learns that Sumatra has ill intentions and Sumatra threatens to have Meenakshi killed if Shakthi doesn't stop the marriage. Shakthi is suspicious when Nithya disappears, but it turns out that Shiva was never serious about the wedding and paid Nithya to pretend. Shiva's relatives suggest that he marry Shakthi and he asks her to refuse his proposal before their families. However, she accepts it, and they are soon married, as are Meenakshi and Sundhar.
Both couples move into the family home, though Shiva and Shakthi continue to quarrel. Sumatra consults an astrologer and is convinced that there is a threat to Sundhar's life, which is why she tried to interfere with their marriage. Told of this, Meenakshi makes excuses to postpone the consummation of their marriage to save Sundhar, and the couple faces ongoing interference from his relatives. Shakthi later learns that the astrologer is a cheat.
Aishwarya moves into the home in a scheme of Subatra's, and she tries to come between Sundhar and Meenakshi. She also helps to frame Shakthi for the theft of family heirlooms, and then for mental illness. Shiva becomes sympathetic and seems to grow closer to Shakthi. However, he gives her divorce papers on his birthday. Shakthi challenges him to provide her with a one-year to make him fall in love with her, which he accepts.
Shiva's pregnant sister Tharani moves into the household and becomes an ally to Shakthi. In a complicated plot they put pressure on Sumatra, and Meenakshi overhears Sumatra and Aishwarya talking about all their schemes. Meenakshi confronts them for their underhanded behaviour.
Shakthi's old college friend Ganga begins working for Shiva's business. They conspire to make Shiva jealous by faking calls to Shakthi from a man named Ranjith. Ganga eventually impersonates Ranjith and visits the home, but Shiva gives Ganga/Ranjith his blessing to marry Shakthi. Ganga instead challenges Shiva to three tasks to test whether he loves Shakthi. Shiva, however, fails in all three tests and confesses his love for Shakthi. He then witnesses an attack on Shakthi by a man employed by Sumatra and her mother. Shiva files an FIR and the police get the truth out of Shakthi's attacker. However, the police blackmail Subatra for money and she agrees to hand over the money. Her secret is kept safe.
Sumatra and her mother hatch many plans to separate Shiva and Shakthi. But Shakthi wins every time and gets very much closer to Shiva. When anu Shakthi's sister learns about shakti's divorce through her friend Venkat who is also Shakthi Shiva's divorce lawyer and love interest of anu, they both plan to make Shiva and Shakthi close. As a part of their plan, they arrange for an outing for the couple, but Sumatra postpones it. A turn of events, it is also revealed that Sundar and Venkat were college buddies and had once promised that their respective wives should be sisters. Meanwhile, shakti's family move into Shiva's house as their house has been conquered by their owner's son which is a plan of Sumatra to make them stay here and humiliate them which will result in Shakthi leaving the house.
Meanwhile, Meenakshi and Sundar consummate their marriage thanks to the help of Shakthi and Meenakshi becomes pregnant.
Later, Venkat and his friend doubt whether Anu loves Venkat and make a drama which makes Anu and Venkat confess their love.
As shiva and Shakthi's marriage happened in a rush, shiva and shakti's family plans another wedding for them. Sumatra kidnaps anu and Venkat on the eve of the wedding to frame them of eloping. But shiva found out about their kidnap and rushed to rescue them, but the goons also kidnap him. Shakthi finds this on the day of marriage and rescues shiva, anu, Venkat with the help of Ranbir and police.
Meanwhile, Shakthi's father comes to know about evil plans of Subathra and her mother and threatens them that he will reveal the truth. Subathra kills him, which is witnessed by Durga, but her aide prevents Durga from shouting for help. Everybody starts asking for Shakthi, Shiva, Anu and there comes a letter stating that Anu has eloped with Venkat (letter written by Subathra) and Subathra makes Shakthi's father's death as a suicide owing to the elopement of his third daughter which makes everyone believe including Shakthi. Durga later manages to flee from the clutches of Subathra's hired goon but is knocked down to temporary paralysis.
Later on, Shiva decides to confess his love to Shakthi, but then he meets with an accident. Later on, he is admitted to the hospital where the doctor declares that Shiva has lost his memories. On hearing this fact, Shakthi gets disappointed, but on the other hand, Subhadra and Patti are happy as Shiva would forget about Shakthi. Ranveer, Sundhar, Dharani, Anu and Meenakshi plan to reunite Shiva and Shakthi; they try various things such as reminding Shiva of Shakthi's name, but Subadhra sets multiple obstacles.
At present, an actress named Sangeetha is hired by Subadhra to act as Shakthi so that Shiva would forget the "Real" Shakthi. On the other hand, Shakthi comes as Meera and works in Shiva's office (actually Subadhra's friend).
