Plot

The chapter starts with Tamizharasu, commonly known as Tamil, a tenth-grade dropout who deserted his studies due to his family's financial hardship. His family consists of seven members: his mother and father, Kothai and Natarajan, who originally established Kothai Industries, which is now managed by Tamil, and his younger brother, Karthik, who has fulfilled an MBA, and his sister, Ragini, who is studying MBBS, Abitha, who appears to work as a maid in their house and is taken into account a part of their family as well as an orphan by Kothai, and Tamil's friend Namachivayam, who lives in Kothai's house. Kothai has an older brother whose daughter intended to marry Tamil but subsequently withdrew according to his studies, provoking Kothai to dare her to find another husband. On the other hand, it focuses on Saraswathi's family, whereby her father Chokkalingam serves as a school administrator and detests Saraswati because she's been studying grade 12 for almost 10 years. Saraswathi's mother, Vasuki, is an educator who attempts to make her feel better. Saraswati's paternal grandmother, who periodically supports her, nor her younger sister Kavya, who also is continuing her B.Tech. in a university, try to teach Saraswati, but she doesn't understand. Her brother Arun, who has also been pursuing his B.Tech. in AI (Artificial Science), absolutely hates Saraswati's studies. After the event of the turned-down wedding proposal, a demotivated Tamil prays to the God Saraswati, where Saraswati visits and hides behing a wall pretending to talk as the God, she tells him jokingly that he will meet a girl three to four times while it is raining and he marry her. After this, a happy Tamil tells this to Namachivayam, who really doesn't believe him, and those who return to the temple, where they meet, and it begins to rain. The storyline then moves on to Chandrakala, another former sub-collector, who is Vasundhara and Aditya's mother. Vasundhara is smitten with Karthik, Thamizh's younger brother. Love is something Kodhai despises. To Thamizh, Karthik professes his love for Vasundhara. Eventually after a lot of problems, the family agrees and Karthik and Vasundhara marry. Meanwhile, one boy attempted to throw a paper at Saraswathi, she gets in trouble cheating on an exam. Chokkalingam (Saraswathi's father) gets enraged by this. Saraswathi comes to terms with her feelings for Tamizh. Kodhai arranges for Thamizh to marry Suhasini. Thamizh realizes his love for Saraswathi on the day of their engagement. Is he planning to marry Saraswathi or Suhasini? Suhasini states she doesn't want to marry Tamizh because of his education level a few days later. One day, Saraswathi finds Kodhai by chance and saves her as she passes out. Saraswathi begins to appeal to Kodhai. Thamizh confesses his love for Saraswathi to Chokkalingam one day, and the latter agrees to see the clan. She continues to like Kodhai and when he starts asking questions about her qualifications, Saraswathi lies and reveals she took MBA to marry Thamizh. Kodhai agrees to marry Thamizh and Saraswathi despite Saraswathi's lack of education. Chandrakala and Geetha are continually attempting to prevent Thamizh and Saraswathi from marrying. Thamizh's aunt, Geetha, despises Kodhai's family and frequently participates with Chandrakala in her schemes. Geetha discovers Saraswathi's educational level one day, but she is rendered speechless due to an accident. When Geetha escapes from the hospital and she and Chandrakala reveal the truth about Saraswathi's education, The euphoria of Thamizh and Saraswathi is fleeting. As a result of Kodhai's passing out from shock, the entire family turns against Thamizh. Kodhai passes out from shock, and the entire family turns both against Thamizh and Saraswathi as a result. Saraswathi now plans to complete Grade 12 and pursue an MBA to prove herself and gain legitimacy from her family. When Kothai returned home following her heart attack. She invites Saraswathi and Tamil inside the house. Vasundhara at the time supported both, although Karthi opposed them. Saraswathi was given the directive to avoid speaking negatively about her parents. She also gets ready for the 12th-grade exam so she can demonstrate her point in full. Geetha and Chandrakala are attempting to split while making various trap plans. While Kothai and Natesan sent Thamil& Saraswathi and Karthik& Vasundhara for a honeymoon to experience and comprehend themselves in Yercaud, Vasundhara and Karthik haven't yet begun living their marital life. They then come back and are united once more. Vasundhara also becomes pregnant, and Chandrakala throws a party for everyone to enjoy. Thamizh and Saraswathi are split apart by Chandrakala and Madhu. The marriage between Thamizh and Saraswathi starts to fall apart. After being encircled by thugs, Madhu calls Thamizh for assistance. She is saved by an inebriated Thamizh. Madhu later claims to be expecting Thamizh's child. When Kodhai's family learns of this, they have 24 hours to establish Thamizh's innocence. Evidence that Madhu lied about her pregnancy is provided to Saraswathi. Ragini, Thamizh’s sister, catches feelings for Aadhi, Vasundhara’s brother. He rejects Ragini's proposal when she asks him to marry her. Arjun, a colleague of Karthik saves Ragini when she is sad. As Arjun and Ragini get closer, they begin to fall in love. Even though Arjun only married Ragini to exact revenge on Kodhai's family, they eventually got married, while Saraswathi begins to question Arjun's evil intentions. As Saraswati learns of Arjun's nefarious plans, she tries to convince everyone in the Kodhai family that Arjun isn’t the good guy that they think he is. However, people misinterpret her because they think she is solely to blame. Raagini marries Arjun fully after that. In this scene, Arjun manipulates his family to engage in games with Kodhai and is torn apart. Geetha and Tamizh also expose Chandrakala, causing Vasundhra to part ways with her until she realises what she did was wrong. As the chairman of Kodhai Industries, Kodhai resigns. She assigns Karthi, Tamizh, and Arjun the responsibility of selecting the next chairman. As Tamizh is blamed, Arjun plays a part in stabbing himself and forcing himself into the hospital. Tamizh is opposed by the entire family when they follow. When Tamil is startled, he and Saraswathi make a choice to leave the Kothai Natesan mansion. They share a home with Namachi. Vasuki and Chokkilingam arrive to help, but Tamil decides not to take their help and wants to be independent. Tamil and Namachi are forced to flee from their home and into another one after Arjun bribes Namachi’s landlord and has him evict them. Without Tamil's knowledge, Saraswathi leaves for work at the repair shop where she works to make ends meet. A few days later, Tamil founded his own business, Saraswathi Industries, which Kodhai and the minister inaugurated. Meenakshi and Vasuki come across Saraswathi and find her working in a mechanic shop to help Tamizh with the bills, and confront Tamizh about it. Upon finding out, Tamizh gets angry since Saraswathi didn’t tell him, but later sympathises and understands why she didn’t tell him. Vasundhara is similarly left alone at home, where Saraswathi discovers that she’s fallen down the stairs and comes to her aid. Vasundhara also gives birth to a child, and Chandrakala thoroughly repents of her actions and begs them both for forgiveness, which they both accept and Vasundhara is reunited with Chandrakala after that. Despite Chandrakala's attempts to unite Tamizh and Saraswathi with Kodhai, Kodhai rejects them. Kothai thinks they came to confront and refute them. Arjun makes a strategy to lure Kodhai into believing that she's transferring her Anna Nagar property to Ragini on her daughter's request. But Arjun tricks Kodhai into transferring all her properties to Ragini. Ragini later being aware of Arjun's masquerade, supports him and commands her family leave the house. Subsequently, Kodhai and her family vacate the house and become homeless. Kodhai and her family along with Saraswati and Adi take refuge in a temple. Kodhai confronts the deity questioning the scenario she's been put into. Meanwhile Saras informs Tamizh about the situation. Tamizh ruffles Arjun's feathers and collects his family from the temple and brings them to his home. Ragini and family celebrate the departure of Kodhai and Natesan and the transfer of all the properties into Arjun's hand by lighting fireworks atop their house in an attempt to diss Kodhai. Kodhai and her family could only watch the atrocities in agony from far. Tamizh rents a larger house to accommodate his family. Tamizh and his family are confronted by Arjun on the road. Kodhai reprimands Arjun for his dishonesty and curses him. Arjun being angry at Kodhai and her family vows to take revenge on Kodhai's family. Arjun later draws a sniper rifle on Tamizh to murder him silently from a distance, but Ragini draws on Arjun, the situation ends when Ragini agrees to transfer all the properties from her to Arjun. Then, Ragini gets delivery pain, and Tamizh decides to help her, by taking her to the hospital. Then, Ragini's baby is born. Both Arjun and Ragini apologize to both Tamizh and Saraswathi for misunderstanding them.
