Plot

Bala is the favourite hit-man of gangster Pasupathi (Dev). If Bala is not zooming around in jeeps with a wild looking gang in it, parading down lanes with the same gang faithfully following a step behind him, or knocking down somebody or the other, he's successfully wooing Arthi, the girl he falls for at first sight. Not surprisingly, Arthi is the daughter of Jeyamani, a rival gangster. Ailing don Paranthaman (Thilakan), mentor of the two rivals, seeing his protégés at each other's throats, brings a compromise by suggesting that Arthi be married to Pasupathi's wayward son. Bala naturally becomes a pariah in both the camps, till of course it's alls well that ends well. Shaam has put in an effort in the fight scenes, but probably it's not really his fault if he couldn't make a convincing rowdy. For he just doesn't have the body language to carry off the role. There's more of confidence in Meera Jasmin's performance here. Kalairani as his blind mother, Karunas as the sidekick, and Thilakan as the ailing don.
