Garudan

Karuna and Aadhi are close childhood friends living in Kombai, Theni. During their childhood, Sokkan, an orphan, saves Karuna from danger, and Karuna takes in Sokkan as a form of gratitude. Sokkan became loyal to Karuna. The three of them grew up in the care of Karuna's grandmother, Sellayee, the head of the trustee committee of the Kombai Amman temple. Being a zamin heir, Karuna lives in poverty with a meagre income from his brick kiln, while Aadhi owns a few lorries. Karuna and Aadhi remain powerful in Kombai while presiding and managing as temple trustees. Meanwhile, Thangapandi, the Registration Department Minister, plans to usurp unclaimed land worth ₹330 crores near Chennai and learns that the land belongs to the Kombai Amman temple while the original deed is in a jewellery box in the temple. After Sellayee's death, Nagaraj, Thangapandi's relative, plans to become the temple committee head at Thangapandi's instruction. However, Sokkan becomes the temple committee head with the support of Aadhi and Karuna. To somehow redeem the bond, Nagaraj provokes Karuna's wife, Angayarkanni, and his brother-in-law, Vairavel, by kindling their greed for money. Thangapandi forces Inspector Muthuvel to join his coercion to aid Nagaraj in his plan. Vairavel, angry with Aadhi for forcing him to marry Parveen, whom he had cheated, stirs up trouble between Aadhi and Karuna.
