Therku Theru Machan is a 1992 Indian Tamil-language drama film written and directed by Manivannan.

Ganesan, the elder one, gets married with Segamalam, daughter of village President and Landlord "School Gounder" from neighbouring Kittampalayam.

The State appoints a retired Judge Subramanian Iyer to inquire about the riot and provide a solution.

He starts to investigate the root of the issue: Devaraj had given huge loans to villagers of Valayapalam, who had pledged their lands to him.

If the dispute continues, Valayapalayam's harvest will be totally spoiled, and thus Devaraj will get hold of those lands quickly.

Out of options, School gounder organises an open wrestling tournament, where anyone who wants to marry Parimalam must compete and the last man standing, wins her.

Subramani devises a plan and Mani, with permission from Police, takes interview of Nagaraj in his fields.

The real Judge Manivannan ends the riots and the separation between two villages, water is released and peace resumes.
