Rajendran is a college student and so, he purposely makes inappropriate sketches on the blackboard and pretends to scold his classmates for their immaturity. The Hindi teacher chances on this and is impressed. Rajendran takes advantage of the positive impression of him in the Hindi teacher's mind and requests to join his tuition to learn Hindi. The Hindi teacher is none other than Jaya's father. But the Hindi teacher tells Rajendran he will conduct his tuition in Rajendran's house instead of his. Rajendran is dismayed by this. At his house, Rajendran annoys the teacher by not cooperating and seeking the support of his nagging grandmother. The teacher gets irritated to the point where he decides to teach Rajendran at his house. But the teacher repeatedly hits Rajendran when he makes mistakes and Rajendran plans to take revenge on him if Jaya fails to fall for him. Venkat gathers information about Jaya's grandfather from the local shopkeeper and plans to trap him in a pothole during his early morning jog. His plan is to trap the grandfather and save him to impress Jaya. But the grandfather jumps out of the pothole himself, foiling Venkat's plan. Venkat sends goons to beat the grandfather so he can put up an act of saving him but the goons get suppressed by him too. The grandfather is a martial artist and so, Venkat decides to learn boxing from him at his house. Jaya's grandfather takes him in but the boxing training is strenuous for Venkat. If Jaya does not fall for him, Venkat plans to take revenge on the grandfather for his physical torture. The next morning, at 5 o'clock, Pazhanisamy sends a soothsayer to Jaya's house. The soothsayer tells Jaya: at 7 o'clock, your future groom will cross your house in a black shirt and white pants. At 7 o'clock, Jaya waits outside her house for the groom. Pazhanisamy comes out in black shirt and white pants but is startled when Jaya cheekily lies to him the soothsayer told her the groom will be in white shirt and black pants. Pazhanisamy believes her and beats up the soothsayer, who swears he did not lie.

One day, Venkat submits a love letter to Jaya who is feeling mixed about it. Jaya's sister arrives from her hometown and plans to stay there for several days.

As planned, Rajendran and Venkat take revenge on the Hindi teacher and the grandfather respectively. But Pazhanisamy is still loyal to Puppy's mother and impresses Jaya.
