Synopsis

Season 1

Brothers Aravind and Mayan (both played by Senthil Kumar) were separated soon after birth when Aravind was given to a childless couple and raised in the city while Mayan remained with his family in the village. Aravind discovers he was adopted and sets out to meet his real parents and twin brother for the first time since his adoption thirty years ago. On the other side Sandanpandi has two wives. He has three children – Devi, Karthik and Vidya from his first wife Valli and one daughter – Thamarai from his second wife Parvaty.

A marriage is fixed between Aravind and Devi but Aravind is kidnapped a few days before the wedding by Machakalai and Parvaty who want to take revenge on Sandanpandi by taking his daughter from his first marriage's groom and having the groom marry his daughter from his second marriage. Problems arise when Mayan takes the identity of Aravind and marries Devi (Raksha Holla) while Aravind is forced to marry Thamarai (Rashmi Jayraj). She is not accepted by her mother-in-law, Gowri whereas Mayan is not accepted by Devi's family. But both of them manage to make their respective spouses reciprocate their feelings.

The main cast was unable to shoot because of the COVID-19 outbreak in 2020, so the season ended prematurely on 26 March 2020.

Season 2

Twin brothers Mayan and Karthik are separated by birth as their parents separate and his mother leaves their home with Karthik. Mayan hates his father, Raja Rathnam as he remarries with Naachiyar. Mayan leaves the home in a fit of rage, but does not find a shelter. Later, he is found by his uncle, Rathnavel and is raised in his home for more than 25 years. There, he also falls in love with Mahalakshmi, a straightforward and righteous teacher and his cousin (Rathnavel's daughter) who dislikes him with her mother, Parvathy for his villainous behaviour while Rathnavel supports him.

Things change when, Mahalakshmi gets engaged to Surya. So, Mayan tries in many ways to stop the wedlock, but at last he is able to do so while Surya's father is in a debt of 15 lakh by playing gambling. He asks Surya whether he wants his parents or Maha, while he chooses his parents. So, Surya is forced to leave when Mayan marries Maha. Later, Mayan is elated when Maha asks about their future life. So, Mayan decides to tell the truth while Maha learns the truth by Surya a while before. She beats Mayan and blames him for her state. Mayan miserably scolds Surya for his state.

When Maha goes to tell her father the truth, Rathnavel has a heart attack. It is later revealed that he already had a heart attack at the market for the preparations of Maha's marriage, being helped by a stranger, it is revealed that he has to do an immediate surgery otherwise he would be in mortal peril, but he brushes it aside. The doctor in present asks Maha and Mayan to not reveal any shocking information to him for a year. How Mayan convinces Maha and leads a happy life with her and helps his sisters and stepmother forms the crux of the story.

Mayan's sister Gayathri is engaged to Aadhavan before Raja Rathnam dies. However, due to Muthuraj, Chithabaram and Vadivu they make Mayan look bad in front of everyone. Gayathri develops feeling for Aadhavan and vice versa. Then Mayan is blamed to stop the marriage between them however it was actually because of Muthuraj. Naachiyar then arranges a marriage between Muthuraj and Gayathri which Gaythari, Mayan and Kaththi oppose.

Kaththi and Gayathri agree to this and get married as they trust Mayan completely.

The whole family arrives there and they attack the trio for their betrayal which was stopped on the arrival of the local police. Then all of them leave the place and reaches their house .
