Plot

Saranya, the small town, good-hearted daughter of a police officer lives in Kodaikanal. She is a new MBBS graduate and is planning to do post-graduation in Surgery in Chennai. She is loved by everyone in her town.

Vikram is an aspiring IPS officer from a joint family where people have different thoughts. On a trip Vikram meets Sathya and both develop feelings for each other but they can not express their feelings. Vikram gets posted to Kodaikanal, but accidentally he loses his phone and cannot contact Sathya, making her feel cheated. Soon, she gets engaged to Vikram's brother, Arjun. Vikram, despite knowing this, refuses to break their marriage and gave promise that he never love any women. After the marriage, Arjun learns of their story and leaves the house, without telling the truth to anyone.

Due to circumstances, Saranya loses her father in a botched police operation to catch a thug, who wanted to forcefully wed Saranya. Saranya feels that IPS officer Vikram is one of the reasons for her father's death, as Vikram inadvertently brought him to the field. Orphan Saranya tries to commit suicide after that. Her villagers force Vikram to marry her and take responsibility in fulfilling her future, so Saranya marries him. But they don't accept each other as husband and wife.[6] On confronting them, Sathya feels cheated and betrayed by Vikram.

The story revolves around Saranya's life in Vikram's joint family, with varied members. They start loving each other. Then they get married again.
