The plot thickens when Parisudham, a village resident, protests against Neduchezhian’s factory, which has harmed many children. During a confrontation, Parisudham humiliates Neduchezhian, leading to a tragic chain of events.
One fateful day, Neduchezhian orders his gang to kill Parisudham. Porus’s sister, Dwaraka, witnesses the murder but is later killed by Neduchezhian to silence her. Determined to seek justice, Porus begins investigating the case independently. With Mythili’s help, he uncovers the involvement of goons and starts hunting down the killers one by one.
Porus’s friend Thalapathy introduces him to a hacker to track Dwaraka’s mobile, but the attempt fails. As more murders come to light, Porus realizes that industrialist Nedunchezhian and corrupt politicians are behind these crimes. In a climactic confrontation, Porus confronts Nedunchezhian and his gang, leading to a fierce battle where he ultimately eliminates the antagonist.
