Chithambaram is the son of Deivanayagam's second wife. After Chithambaram's mother died, Deivanayagam and his son moved back to his hometown. Deivanayagam's first wife, Valliyammai, who already has three children, gets shocked and starts hating Chithambaram. Valliyammai hates him more because his arrival in this house is the reason her two elder brothers left the house, and they also started hating Valliyammai and Chithambaram. After a few months, Deivanayagam gets sick, and he gets a promise from Valliyammai to take care of Chithambaram, and he also writes a will to give fifty percent of his assets to Chithambaram and the other half to Valliyammai, and Deivanayagam dies.

(after 27 years)

Chithambaram is 35 years old and still yearns for the love of his mother, Valliyammai. Even though his mother doesn't like him, his two brothers and sister do. Chithambaram runs an event management organization. He requests a bank loan to help his company grow, but the bank manager, Muthaiya rejects the loan application because Chithambaram has no degree. To avenge him, Chithambaram joins an arts college, where he meets Meenakshi, his class professor. Meenakshi's father, Manivasagam, is a family friend of Valliyammai, so Manivasagam introduces Meenakshi to Valliyammai. Valliyammai likes Meenakshi. Meenakshi dislikes Chithambaram's behavior at first, but as she learns more about him and his family, she falls in love with him. Though it was not his fault that the family separated, Chithambaram feels guilty, and he decides to unite the brothers' families with Valliyammai. However, Valliyammai's brothers have separate plans to avenge Chithambaram. Meenakshi's uncle, Meiyappan's son, has expressed interest in marrying her, but she despises him for his arrogance. Will Chithambaram reunite the family and get loved by his mother, Valliyammai? The rest of the story involves whether Meenakshi and Chithambaram get married or not.
