Dharmarajan master needs some money for his daughter's marriage. So he visits one of his old students Aadhityan, who is one of the famous and top rated Directors in the film industry. Aadhityan gives a chance to master. Master seeks help from his several students to assist him with the job, but no one helps him. He visits Tarzan Antony who was his favorite student who left him because of some issues. Tarzan agrees and joins the set. There he meets the hero of the film Premanand, who is the son of a Home Minister and Heroine Gowri Menon, who is one of the top actresses in the industry. Premanand is like a sinking ship and needs a hit, so he joins his friend Aadhityan for the movie. Meanwhile, Premanand likes Gowri and wants to marry her. He tries to impress her in several ways but she ignores him. Tarzan's dedication to his works and amazing stunts impresses Gowri. The movie gets released and it becomes a grand hit. The audience who don't know the actual hero behind the screen appreciates Premanand for the action sequences while Gowri, Aadhityan and the whole crew appreciates Tarzan for his work. Gowri and Tarzan fall in love with each other. Premanand decides to destroy Tarzan who is a hindrance between him and Gowri. At that time Aadhityan announces his next project with the same cast and crew. Premanand wants to remove Tarzan from the project, but Aadhityan in turn removes Premanand from the movie and make Tarzan the hero of the movie. This angers Premanand and he takes revenge by plotting to kill Tarzan, but ends up killing Tarzan's father. Aadhityan tells Tarzan to let matters lie low for a while before he takes his revenge.
