Plot
Boopathy Pandian is a strict father who uses the whip abundantly on anyone who disobeys him. He has a bedridden wife Lakshmy ; two good-for-nothing sons Rama and Krishna ; two daughters-in-law; and two daughters. He is against love marriages since his own sister Eshwari ran away with the sorcerer Vikramadithyan, who is now his archenemy. His younger daughter Divya is in love with Siddhu, the son of the family manager. At night, the lovers secretly meet without the authoritarian Boopathy Pandian knowing. Boopathy Pandian suspects Vikramadithyan's son Purushothaman is stalking his daughter. When Boopathy Pandian threatens Vikramadithyan that he would whip him again as he did when Vikramadithyan married his sister, Vikramadithyan swears that his son will marry Divya at any cost.One day, Boopathy Pandian finds out an unsigned love letter to Divya. Boopathy Pandian whips his daughter and suspects Purushothaman for writing it, but Purushothaman claims that he has never gone to school and that he is illiterate. Boopathy Pandian decides to hire rowdies to protect his daughter. Therefore, the four clumsy rowdies - Maaja, Goda Govindan, Karadi, and Bruce Lee - come to his house. Boopathy Pandian then learns that Siddhu is Divya's lover and feels betrayed by Siddhu, for whom he had high regard. Thereafter, Boopathy Pandian meets his old friend Thangaraj and accepts for Divya to get married with Thangaraj's NRI son Rajendran. Later, Rajendran comes back home with his newlywed wife. The greedy Thangaraj, who wants all of Boopathy Pandian's wealth, drives his newlywed daughter-in-law away, and Rajendran accepts for the marriage. In the meantime, Boopathy Pandian's daughter Viji elopes with Maaja, and they secretly get married.

Divya pleaded with her sisters and mother to let her marry Siddhu. They accept and help her elope with Siddhu. Later, Lakshmy convinces Purushothaman to forget Divya. Therefore, Purushothaman decides to help Divya and Siddhu, but Boopathy Pandian, Thangaraj, and Rajendran are hell bent on stopping this elopement.
