Plot[]
Jeeva, Sengodi, Paandi, and a few others work towards social reforms in their casteism dominated town near Madurai. The comrades endure physical pain and become outcasts but still go on with their ambitions helping a transgender become a noteworthy citizen and also build a growing casteless group of likeminded people. Jeeva is past the marriage age, and his life principles come in the way of getting a girl. After several attempts, a rich girl Sowmya, who is from his own caste, agrees to marry him. On the wedding night Sowmya's behavior not only destroys Jeeva's personal life but also poses a challenge for what he stood for all his life. Does the hero win in his selfless goals or not forms the rest of the story.
