One day, Kutti Puli's mother is arrested and falsely accused of stealing a temple idol. Kutti Puli is outraged by the injustice and goes out of his way to prove his mother's innocence. He must use his intelligence, fighting skills, and the support of loyal village friends to gather evidence and clear his mother's name.
As the investigation into the theft goes on, a rival gang led by the wealthy and powerful Gnanavel, poses a threat to the villagers. Loaded with political and societal issues, the film gradually reveals the dynamics between different groups of people and their mutual distrust.
