However things go south when Anand faces stiff challenge from thugs. He finds assistance from Kalpana, a martial artist who later becomes his teacher. But Kalpana soon develops a love interest in Anand.
He rejects Kalpana because he always saw her as a guru/teacher. Meanwhile, Kalpana pinned hopes on him that he will marry her one-day only to be heartbroken.
Anand later encounters Raadha a woman who goes to Achiramam as a sex worker. Anand tries to change her into a good person. Raadha develops interest in him and her grandma decides to make her granddaughter's wish happen by having discussion with Anand's elder brother. Anand obeys his elder brother on many occasions and is shocked, because Anand is in love with Seetha (Rupini) and Anand has promised that he will only marry her. Anand tries to explain it to his elder brother by saying it us his life and Seetha's life will be upset if he marries Raadha. The elder brother is not convinced but allows Anand to decide.
A group of men abduct Raadha. Anand rescues her. Meanwhile the grandma of Raadha somehow convinced the parents of Seetha to send Seetha out of the village so that her granddaughter Raadha can marry Anand. Seetha is accompanied by the grandma of Raadha to a railway station in the climax. Anand goes in search of her there. Raadha later realises the true love between Anand and Seetha hence decides to sacrifice her life for them by convincing her grandmother by saying "Paati enoda kaadhal ah vilaiku vangunathu podhum. Deivathuke vakkapata ponu avanga sera vendiya idam inga. Avanga Kaadhal unmaiyanathu."
