The film tells the story of the protagonist, Mannan (Rajinikanth), a high-profile industrialist who starts his own company after being fired from his previous job. Mannan is an honest and hardworking man who believes in earning everything through his sweat and determination. His personality and business acumen make him very popular among his employees and the people around him.

Although successful in his professional life, Mannan has a strained relationship with his family, particularly his father and younger brother. In an effort to reconcile with them, he arranges his sister's marriage, but things take a sudden twist when he is kidnapped by a group of terrorists. The kidnappers demand that Mannan release one of their associates who has been arrested by the police. Mannan, being the protagonist that he is, refuses to give in to their demands and sets out to rescue the hostages himself.

Along the way, Mannan meets a love interest, Gowri (Vijayashanti), who is also the daughter of the police commissioner (K. Vishwanath). However, their relationship is complicated due to their different backgrounds and the danger that Mannan faces as he tries to rescue his hostages.
