Plot

Naaga (Ranjith) was a rowdy who secretly worked for Sub-Inspector Pandian (Satya Prakash) and helped the police solve cases. One day, the news reporter Lakshmi (Indhu) revealed Pandian's partnership with a rowdy to the media. The issue quickly mushroomed and made the front page. The scandal tarnished Pandian's reputation, and the promotion that he was waiting for so long was cancelled by his superiors. Naaga then kidnapped Lakshmi, and Pandian brutally raped her. Pandian ordered Naaga to kill her, but Naaga changed his mind and let her go.

Many years later, Lakshmi, who suffers from mental illness, is the mother of the little girl Devi (Baby Akshaya) born due to the rape. Guru (Vignesh) is a TV serial and commercial actor who wants to become a cinema hero. One day, he finds his friend Julie (Aruna Giridhar) dead in her home. The police arrested him for killing her. Jhansi (Monal), who loves Guru since her childhood, decides to get him out of prison and conducts an investigation alone. Desiring to know her father, Devi leaves her mother and grandfather in search of her father.

Naaga changed his name to Durai, saw the error of his ways, and repented. Naaga later takes Devi, lost in the city, and Jhansi, pursued by criminals, to his house. Thereafter, Naaga comes to know that Pandian, now promoted as Assistant Commissioner of Police, is the father of Devi and is behind Guru's arrest. What transpires later forms the crux of the story.

Reception

Chennai Online wrote "It's a hop, skip and jump style of narration and scripting. Hopping unsteadily without any focus. Skipping over continuity factors."[5]
