Vivek, Narayanan and Kannan are admitted to a hospital for treatment. Babu, son of a rich businessman, is also admitted in the same ward as them. They become friends in a short time period. They finally come to know that they will live only for few more months: the four friends have blood cancer. They decide to leave the hospital and to travel.
The friends arrive in a small village where Sivalingam spreads terror among the villagers. The friends are accommodated by an old blind woman and her daughter Nirmala. Thereafter, Sivalingam's son Kumar and the poor village girl Nirmala fall in love with each other. After a lot of struggles throughout the events of the film, the four friends succeed in killing Sivalingam and uniting Kumar and Nirmala, sacrificing their lives in the process. The film ends with Kumar and Nirmala laying flowers at the graves of the four friends and Kumar taking Babu's bracelet as a token of their memory.
The music was composed by Soundaryan, who also wrote the lyrics.[1][2]
