Plot

The chapter starts with Tamizharasu, commonly known as Tamil, a tenth-grade dropout who deserted his studies due to his family's financial hardship. His family consists of seven members: his mother and father, Kothai and Natarajan, who originally established Kothai Industries, which is now managed by Tamil, and his younger brother, Karthik, who has fulfilled an MBA, and his sister, Ragini, who is studying MBBS, Abitha, who appears to work as a maid in their house and is taken into account a part of their family as well as an orphan by Kothai, and Tamil's friend Namachivayam, who lives in Kothai's house. Kothai has an older brother whose daughter intended to engage Tamil but subsequently withdrew according to his studies, provoking Kothai to dare her to find another husband. On the other hand, it focuses on Saraswati's family, whereby her father Chokkalingam serves as a school administrator and detests Saraswati because she's been studying grade 12 for almost 10 years. Saraswathi's mother, Vasuki, is an educator who attempts to make her feel better. Saraswati's paternal grandmother, who periodically supports her, nor her younger sister Kavya, who also is continuing her B.Tech. in a university, try to teach Saraswati, but she doesn't understand. Her brother Arun, who has also been pursuing his B.Tech. in AI (Artificial Science), absolutely hates Saraswati's studies. After the event of the turned-down wedding proposal, a demotivated Tamil prays to God, where Saraswati visits and plays a sarcastic comment on him, telling him that he will meet a girl three to four times in the rain and marry her. After this, a happy Tamil tells this to Namachivayam, who really doesn't believe him, and those who return to the temple, where they meet, and it begins to rain.

The storyline then moves on to Chandrakala, another former sub-collector. She is also Vasundhara, Aditya's mother. Vasundhara is smitten with Karthik, Thamizh's younger brother. Love is something Kodhai despises. To Thamizh, Karthik professes his love for Vasundhara. They also inform Natesan (Karthik and Thamizh's father). They create facts to persuade Kodhai to see his relatives. When they pay a visit to the household, Chandrakala is unpleasant and attempts to convince them that she isn't connected to them. When they visit the family, Chandrakala is hostile and attempts to claim that she is wealthy whereas Kodhai is poor. This irritates Kodhai, who decides to call off the wedding. Vasundhara tries to commit suicide. Chandrakala decides to marry Vasundhara and Karthik without telling the rest of the family. Karthik declares on the wedding day that he will not marry Vasundhara without Kodhai. When Kodhai hears Karthik praising her, he promises to marry Karthik and Vasundhara later. Meanwhile, one boy attempted to throw a paper at Saraswathi, she gets in trouble cheating on an exam. Chokkalingam (Saraswathi's father) gets enraged by this. Saraswathi comes to terms with her feelings for Tamizh. Kodhai arranges for Thamizh to marry Suhasini. Thamizh realizes his love for Saraswathi on the day of their engagement. Is he planning to marry Saraswathi or Suhasini?

At a resort, Thamizh notices Shyam with another female. The wedding will last three days. Thamizh arrests Shyam, and Chokkalingam discovers Thamizh's feelings for Saraswathi. Thamizh confesses his love for Saraswathi to Chokkalingam one day, and the latter agrees to see the clan.

When Geetha escapes from the hospital and she and Chandrakala reveal the truth about Saraswathi's education, The euphoria of Thamizh and Saraswathi is fleeting. As a result of Kodhai's passing out from shock, the entire family turns against Thamizh. Kodhai passes out from shock, and the entire family turns both against Thamizh and Saraswathi as a result.
