Summaries

  • Udayappa (Ashish Vidyarthi) is a wealthy businessman who donates 1800 crores for charity purpose in his district. He requests the district collector Priya Alexander (Karthika Mathew) to entrust the job of spending the money to two slum-dwellers, Mani (Manivannan) and his adopted son Ramu (Pradeep). Udayappa instructs to use the money to build houses for slum dwellers. One night, the drunk Raju (Sharwanand), the son of the greedy politician Mahaganapathy (Rajan P. Dev), attempts to rape Mani's adopted daughter Shanthi (Sanusha), but the prostitute Sarasu (Kiran Rathod) saves Shanthi from her aggressor. The next day, at a school function, Raju is invited as the chief guest and is shocked to see the schoolgirl Shanthi. Shanthi then gives a public speech and begs Raju to help the slum dwellers. Raju decides to become a good person, and he declares his love for her. Mahaganapathy and Ramasamy (Tanikella Bharani) are keen to usurp the money given by Udayappa, and they threaten Mani to give them the 1800 crores. Mani and Ramu then kidnap Mahaganapathy to avert the blackmail. During the abduction, Maha Ganapathy discovers Udayappa's dead body. In the past, Udayappa was a small-time crook who forced the child Ramu to steal, and one day, he burned a hovel where 24 orphaned kids were sleeping, and all of the children died. Many years later, Udayappa became a rich businessman by wrong means. To take revenge on him, Ramu kidnapped his daughter Aishwarya (Oviya) and he blackmailed Udayappa to donate a part of his fortune to the slum dwellers. Udayappa first cooperated with them but then changed his mind. When the election starts, Ramu decides to become an independent candidate at the election, but since he is homeless and does not have a voter ID, he cannot contest at the election. Ramu then requests the slum dwellers to vote none of the above, and NOTA gets the majority of votes. Udayappa is, in reality, alive and is sequestered by Mani. Mahaganapathy escapes from the place and orders his henchmen to kill Udayappa. Mahaganapathy then kidnaps Shanthi, and Ramasamy brutally rapes her. Shanthi then kills Mahaganapathy and is arrested. Seven years later, Shanthi is released from jail and the current home minister, Raju, asks for her hand in marriage.
