| Vijay ([[Arun Vijay]]) is crazy about his younger brother Vadhan (Jaivardhan). Then in a college election, he impersonates the police officer on duty, batters a group of goondas, threatens other candidates and forces them to withdraw, only so that brother gets elected. But by this act, Vijay earns the wrath of the local gangster Sathya ([[Satya Prakash (actor)|Sathyaprakash]]).

|
| Meantime, Vijay meets Vedha ([[Sheela (Tamil actress)|Sheela]]) and after a few meetings, both of them develop an affinity towards each other. Simultaneously, Vijay learns that Vadhan is in love. When Vadhan feels hesitant and unsure of success in his love, Vijay elects to help him, as usual. They visit a mall where predictably, Vadhan introduces Vedha as the light of his life. Hiding his disappointment Vijay congratulates his brother and with his convincing dialogues, persuades Vedha to marry Vadhan. The fairy-tale wedding takes place, but a shocking truth revealed during the wedding night shatters the lives of Vijay, Vedha and Vadhan.

| ==Critical reception==
| |
| ''Behindwoods'' wrote "The challenge for director Nitya Kumar and scriptwriter Vasu Baskar must have been how to pull off this tale of complicated relationships without coming across as too moralistic on the one hand and too vulgar on the other. They are able to take the audience through these relationship turns without losing our interest. However, the story is took dark and depressing, leaving an audience tired. The fail fails to grip and entertain you."<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.behindwoods.com/tamil-movie-reviews/reviews-1/vedha-review.html|title = VEDHA MOVIE REVIEW ARUN VIJAY SHEELA SRIKANTH DEVA TAMIL MOVIE GALLERY AUDIO SONGS tamil movie hot stills picture image gallery}}</ref> ''Indiaglitz'' wrote "Vedha could have been a far better film had the director focused the subject sharply."<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.indiaglitz.com/vedha-tamil-movie-review-8894.html|title=Vedha review.
