Thillainathan (Karthik), a young graduate, leaves his village for an interview. He gets the job at the bank, he then finds a stable place to live and he falls in love with Jeyakodi (Priya). His favourite singer, his favourite poet and his favourite politician all come, one by one, to see him in his new house. Thillainathan is amazed by the words of his mentor's about Thenmozhi. So he decides to find this unknown woman: Thenmozhi. With his sidekick, he tries to find her, but they could not find her.

At his pre-marriage ritual, his detective said that he found Thenmozhi and he went here. But it wasn't her and he was attacked by some goons. The wedding was then cancelled, he was fired by his bank company and was expelled from his house. He found an evidence at his house that Thenmozhi is in fact Jeyakodi. He goes to her house and her office but she wasn't there. Thillainathan returned to his village and his father didn't consider him any more as his son. Pichamuthu, his friend whose his wife eloped, died and his wife's new husband helps Thillainathan to find a job.

Thillainathan gets a new job. He later goes to a musical show. There, he sees Jeyakodi dancing with the famous singer Vasudevan (Radha Ravi). When he talks to her after the show, she explains to him that she is not Jeyakodi and she is married to Vasudevan. Thillainathan attempts to commit suicide. At the hospital, Vasudevan confirmed that she is Thenmozhi. The doctor asked Vasudevan to find a person who had AB+ blood group in order to save Thillainathan.
