Plot

Valiyan Kodu is a Kingdom ruled by Suhadevar. His daughter is Kanchana. The king is a sickly person. Divan Alavandhar administers the State. He has two sons. Veeramani is his own son and Thirumeni is his adopted son. Divan plans to Veeramani to marry Kanchana and become the ruler of Valiyan Kodu. Valluvan Kundram is a village adjacent but outside the Kingdom. People of Valluvan Kundram consider Thangadurai as their chief. He is a patriotic person working for the welfare of the village. He has a younger brother named Thambidurai. They both had a sister named Angayarkanni. Thangadurai's wife is Idhyarani. The Head of the family is Chelliah, an uncle of Thangadurai. A conflict begins between Valiyan Kodu and Valluvan Kundram when a statue of Tiruvalluvar is found when the people of Valluvan Kundram builds a dam. The divan of Valiyan Kodu claims the statue. Thambidurai keeps the statue in a well-guarded cave in Valluvan Kundram. Thirumeni comes to Valluvan Kundram for spying. He falls in love with Angayarkanni. Thambidurai meets Kanchana when she her father, the King spends a holiday in a forest resort. Thambidurai and Kanchana falls in love with each other. In the meantime, it becomes known that Tirumeni is the lost son of Chelliah. The divan gets angry. He sends the King and Kanchana to Jail and declares war on Valluvan Kundram.
