The film starts with a flashback. The young man Aadhi (R. Yuvan) was disowned by his family and struggled to find a job in Chennai. He then fell in love with a rich girl named Gayathri (Madhu Sharma), and a month later, they got married, but later, Gayathri humiliated him and expelled him from her home because he was apathetic, poor, and could not satisfy her sexually. Aadhi then ran into his childhood friends Pazhani (Shashank) and Seenu (Bala) in a police station. Pazhani was a naïve bank employee who had an unpleasant tendency to talk for hours and drove away every person within his orbit, while the jobless Seenu stole money from bar customers to drink alcohol. They started to live together and decided to make easy money: they snatched gold chains and pickpocketed. Soon, they got fed up with small amounts and decided to rob a bank. Back to the present, Aadhi and Seenu, both masked and armed, enter the bank, whereas the panic-stricken Pazhani ditches them. The two friends seize control of the bank and take the customers and employees hostage. Two of the hostages then put on their masks and shoot at Aadhi and Seenu. Police surround the bank and decide to catch the robbers, but the hostages are released at that moment. The police detain and question everyone but are unable to distinguish the identically dressed hostages from the robbers. The police find that the robbers' weapons were plastic replicas, and 5 crores were disappeared from the bank, but no clue was left. A flashback reveals that Aadhi had roped two of his childhood friends Shankar (Shafi) and Hari (Nitish Veera), who were professional bank robbers. The five friends have successfully robbed 5 crores from the bank. Since the police are on their trail, they want to split and go to different towns by entrusting the job of carrying the entire money with a single man: Pazhani, who was not in the bank during the robbery. In the meantime, the police inspector (Ajay) is charged to arrest the culprits, and he finds that five people were involved in this robbery. The five friends do not trust each other sufficiently. Shankar hires a man to steal the money bag from Pazhani, while Aadhi decides to secretly follow Pazhani in the bus. Aadhi then steals the money bag and runs away. When Pazhani tries to catch Aadhi, a container lorry hit Pazhani, and he died on the spot. A few days later, Aadhi returns to Seenu's home, and Seenu suspects Aadhi of double-crossing them. Aadhi has no other choice but to kill Seenu. Aadhi escapes from the crime scene and later meets with Shankar and Hari. They discover Seenu's dead body in his home and decide to bury it. Hari, who hates Shankar, suspects him of having the money bag and clashes with him, so he kidnaps Shankar's wife Dhanam (Tharsha) and sequesters her in a godown. Hari then realizes that Aadhi betrayed them and threatens to give him the money bag. Aadhi takes Hari to the woods and stones him to death. Aadhi then calls Shankar with Hari's phone and threatens him to kill his wife. Shankar arrives in the woods, and Aadhi cuts his throat. With the help of another friend (Kadhal Dhandapani), Aadhi fakes his own death and deposits the money in Gayathri's bank account. The next day, Aadhi meets Gayathri in her bedroom, has sex with her, and vanishes. The police inspector then arrests Gayathri and believes that Hari is still alive and was the one who killed his friends. Aadhi, delighted to have got revenge on his wife, leaves India to settle abroad. At the end, when Aadhi came to retrieve the money that he had hidden secretly, Dhanam hits Aadhi from behind (thinking that he was Hari) and dies.
