[edit] Story

Auto mobile mechanic Ashok (alanganalore) is thrown out of his family's house by his father (Prakash Raj), when his violent actions kill his grand mother (Ramaprabha). Ashok falls in love with aishwariya, a neighbour. However, K.K(Sonu Sood) also falls in love with aishwariya, when he sees her involved in an accident. Ashok's friend Husain(dindigul) is killed by K.K.'s gang whilst saving aishwariya from the clutches of K.K. This angers Ashok who has, in the meantime, gone off to madurai because of a plot by K.K and his mother (Vadipukarassi), which also involved Ashok's father. As soon as he learns what has happened he rushes back to alanganalore to save both his family and aishwariya. Ashok's best friend(Rajiv Kanakala) was killed by K.K and his brother, and for revenge, he kills his brother. K.K wants revenge, and kidnaps Ashok's sister. During the climax of the film Ashok is fighting K.K., whose mother arrives with the intention of shooting Ashok. As often occurs in films, things soon go awry and the bullet hits K.K., killing him. Ashok is then free to tell aishwariya of his undying love and we assume they go on to live happily ever after.
