Due to his devotion for Lord Maruti, he does not show any interest in women. One day, while returning from a Sri Anjaneya temple, he sees his elder sister, Vineethra crying outside his house after his father refused to take her in, having disowned her for eloping with a Coimbatore-based mill owner Shanmugham against his wishes. Vineethra, however, now has issues with Shanmugham, as a result of which, she left him and returned to her father's house. On Kathir's cajoling, his father reluctantly accepts Vineethra into the house. Kathir then decides to find out what caused the standoff between Vineethra and Shanmugham and leaves for Coimbatore, lying to his father that he is headed for Salem to do some work related to his minibus business. Before leaving, he is warned by Vineethra not to fall for Shanmugham's neighbor, Pavithra, as her father and Shanmugham are sworn enemies.
