Determined to get the job at all costs, Prabhu is ready to do anything to obtain this amount as quickly as possible. He decides to kidnap someone so as to demand a ransom from the family of this person. Fate leads him to abduct Uma, who happens to be the only daughter of Minister Durairaj.

Uma falls in love with Prabhu, and, before long, Prabhu begins to love Uma too. Meanwhile, Uma’s parents hire Vasu, a rowdy who is ready to do anything for the sake of money, to find their daughter. The rest of the film revolves around if the pair will be found.
