Burma grows up in the mean streets to be a gun dealer and waits for an opportunity to enter Gurupadam’s house and take revenge. Soon, he wins over Gurupadam and his daughter Sangeetha ([[Kirat Bhattal]]). But Ayra and Veeravel ([[Ramji (actor)|Ramji]]), Gurupadom’s elder son, are tooth and nail opposed to him and fear that he will take over their empire. However, Burma uses tact and cunningness to overcome their resentment and wins over Gurupadom’s trust. Slowly, he starts to understand the machinations of the power play in the underworld.
