Raasathi is very fond of her mother, who died when she was young. Raasathi gets attracted towards Karuppusamy as his acts reminds her of her late mother. Raasathi proposes Karuppusamy and requests him to be with her, so that she feels that her mother lives with her in the form of Karuppusamy. Karuppusamy, although reluctant at initial stages, agrees to Raasathi.

Meanwhile, there is Sakthi Kumar who frequently follows Raasathi, but she gets furious seeing him. Raasathi's father finds out about her love for Karuppusamy and gets furious. Now, all her family members are united after a long gap citing this love issue. It is revealed that Sakthi Kumar is Raasathi's cousin brother. A small flashback is shown where, Raasathi's uncles were ruthless money lenders in Madurai. As they were very strict in money lending, they had a huge list of enemies as well.

Raasathi's family members lock her up in a room and decides to stop her education. Karuppusamy gets furious and requests them to send her to college, as he wanted her to continue her passion of becoming a doctor.

But secretly, Raasathi's family members plan for her wedding and her wedding is arranged without her knowledge itself. When Karuppusamy finds out this, he gets angry and goes to Raasathi's house. He bashes all the goons and takes Raasathi with him. Karuppusamy scolds Raasathi's family members for not keeping up their words.
