Well educated and beautiful, Kavitha is initially arranged to marry a wealthy man, Mohankumar, who happens to be the heir of a rich Garments company in Tirupur, where the brothers work.

On the wedding eve, Kavitha's parents meet with a big accident while on the way to the marriage hall.

The brothers console and take Kavitha back to their village and she begins to appreciate their simple lifestyle, and starts to live with her cousins and her aunt.

Periya Thambi even works as sandalwood-cutter to buy luxuries for Kavitha, which she rejects as private Sandalwood felling is illegal.

Periya Thambi is arrested by the local police and their mother dies due to heart-attack.

Periya Thambi arranges for their wedding on the day of Chinna's release, and also Thayamma's family accepts for her remarriage.

But on the day of the wedding, Kavitha is kidnapped by the mill owner's son and the local landlord.
