Ram Sundar (R. Sarathkumar), also known as Ramu, is a rich businessman and he is married to Meenakshi (Meena). They have an arrogant daughter Priya (Also Meena). Ramesh (Vignesh), a graduate who works as a car driver, falls in love with Priya and lies to her that he is a rich man. They eventually fall in love with each other until Priya knows the truth. So, Ramu tries to reason with her and tells his daughter about his past.
In the past, Meenakshi was the daughter of a rich businessman (Kitty) while Ramu repaired slippers in the street with his friend Ponnusamy (Goundamani). One day, Ramu saved Meenakshi from goons and Meenakshi fell in love with him. Ponnusamy and Meenakshi made a plan to seduce Ramu. Under the name of Mayil Aatha, Meenakshi has finally won Ramu's heart and he reciprocated her love. Meenakshi's father didn't accept for the marriage, so Meenakshi rejected her rich life and she married Ramu. Thereafter, Ramu worked hard and he became one of the richest men in India.
