Plot
Tamil Nadu Home Minister Ponnurangam, one of the four founders of the ruling party, wants to become the state's CM, but is unsuccessful in his attempt where his co-founders and juniors have become the CM since many years. Due to this, Ponnurangam calls Azhagam Perumal, a domestic terrorist, and orders him to create chaos in the city. Azhagam Perumal sets off a bomb in the head office of the state's major opposition party, where 22 people died during the bomb blast.

Consequently, the incumbent Chief Minister charges the new ATS's ACP Suriya to track down the terrorist group. Surya's girlfriend Raji's brother Dinesh is the one, who has been tracking Azhagam Perumal for the last six months, before the blast. Two of Azhagam Perumal's attempts to kill the CM goes in vain due to Suriya, where he gets injured in the second attempt. Azhagam Perumal tells Ponnurangam to either remove Suriya from his path or find another guy to finish the CM. Using his influence, Ponnurangam gets Suriya transferred to the Anti-Prostitution Department, and Dinesh is given the responsibility of the case.

Meanwhile, Suriya arrests Ponnurangam's illegal concubine Ezhilarasi, who is the head of a huge brothel. He accidentally comes across Dinesh, trying to capture a terrorist in the central station, and the police attempt goes awry. Suriya is later framed for going to a brothel when he was on an undercover attempt, and gets suspended. An attempt is made on Suriya's life, which he escapes, but Dinesh is killed in his house, and Suriya's mother is also killed in a blast at his home. Suriya and Raji heads to complain about Ponnurangam to the CM, but she is unable to do anything immediately as she is going on a state visit to Seychelles. Suriya accompanies the CM as her chief bodyguard.

Meanwhile, Ponnurangam is watching the TV show of the CM's visit, waiting for her death, as he would immediately become the acting CM. However, Raji arrives there and holds Ponnurangam at gunpoint, but he snatches her gun and holds her at bay. An attempt is made on the CM's life, but Suriya still saves her and captures the disguised Azhagam Perumal. Hearing about Azhagam Perumal's arrest, Ponnurangam commits suicide.

Reception
Thulasi of Kalki wrote it is a film that does not disappoint the fans who are expecting 100% entertainment. D. S. Ramanujam of The Hindu wrote, "Director R. S. Elavarasan, has written a story  suitable to the palate of the present day  viewers,  where well-built  and  handsome hero, Sarathkumar goes  full  blast  in action  scenes  and completes the drama aspects  with  controlled acting. Goundamani playing the villain after a long time, does it with a measure of conviction".
