Now an ex-military officer, Kumaran is running the canteen of Mahatma College after a tragic incident that took his father and sister's life. Kumaran is dear to all the students and he actively engages with them, whether in youth festivals, love affairs, fights, or campus tours. He even helps them bring teachers back from their private tuition classes to the college.
Madhavi (Vimala Raman), the college's English professor, hates him because she saw Kumaran getting involved in a fight with a street rowdy. Once during a campus tour, the bus gets involved in an accident, killing several students. Madhavi tells everyone that Kumaran was the reason for the accident. The rest of the movie is about Kumaran's attempts to prove his innocence and how he regains the trust of his fellow students and of Madhavi.
