The film opens with the story of a strong-willed trade unionist who dedicates himself to improving the lives of struggling laborers. He lives in a modest home with his wife, Seetha Manorama, and their two young sons, Raja Rajinikanth and Ravi Suman Talwar. A corrupt businessman relentlessly blackmails him, threatening to kill his family unless he stops his union activities. Cornered and coerced, the unionist capitulates, and the very workers who once supported him turn against him, attacking him and undermining his authority. ” The frightened father is forced to flee, leaving Seetha and the boys to face a life of precarious poverty. With little choice, Seetha takes them to Madras, where she scrapes by as a day laborer to feed and shelter her now-homeless children.
