Roja works in a finance firm and has a big family of three sisters, a brother (Kuralarasan Rajendar), an alcoholic father (Manivannan), and a mother (Vadivukkarasi) to support. Murali (Murali), her office colleague, loves her and makes his intention clear in every opportunity that he gets. However, Roja has no time for him. T. R. has a sister named Saro (Swathi), who is married to a corrupt cop named Inbaraj (Karan). Inbaraj, furious about T. R. exposing him in his newspaper, harasses Saro, egged on by his avaricious mother (Y. Vijaya) and sister (Bhuvaneswari). The burden of taking care of the family becomes a little too much for Roja.
