In the past, the honest military officer Jeevadurai (Jaiganesh) was killed by Govindan (Vijayakumar). Thereafter, Rajaratnam (Sathyaraj), Jeevadurai's son, was brought up by D.I.G Pandidurai (Sivaji Ganesan). A few years later, Rajaratnam marries Devaki (Rupini) and they then have a son. Like his father, Rajaratnam becomes a police officer. In Shanthi Nagar, Govindan, who is now known as Kocha, controls the city and the people are afraid of him and his henchmen.
