Yuvan is a youth who hangs out with his four friends: Shah Rukh Khan, a man living thirty years in the past; Vijay, a basketball player; Amitabh Rajkamal; and Anand, a moneylender. He falls in love with a girl named Anjana and has a grudge against her brother Arjun Prabhakar, a police officer. Arjun warns Yuvan not to fall in love with Anjana, but he does so anyway. As a mark of revenge, Arjun gets involved in a scam involving an MLM company and puts the blame on Yuvan. How Yuvan comes out of this problem and reunites with Anjana forms the rest of the story.
