Thalaivar Thambi Thalaimaiyil

Thalaivar Thambi Thalaimaiyil

Jeevarathnam is a president in the village panchayat and is respected by all the villagers. He is entrusted with ensuring that the wedding festivities of Sowmya, the daughter of Ilavarasu, proceed smoothly. Everything goes according to plan until Chellappan, the father of Ilavarasu's neighbour, Mani, dies at the neighbouring house. Mani demands Jeeva to ensure that Chellappan's funeral takes place at 10:30 am in front of his house on the next day, clashing with Sowmya's wedding which is going to take place at Ilavarasu's house. Jeeva tries to talk to Ilavarasu and Mani separately to convince one of them to agree on a different time for the intended ritual. However, both are unwilling to compromise, mainly because of the hatred that exists between them. As elections are approaching, Jeeva's rival, Thavidu sides with Mani and even sets up a billboard about Chellappan's funeral that is bigger than the billboard for Sowmya's wedding. Unable to find a solution, Jeeva talks to Ilavarasu and Mani's wives who are on good terms with each other and succeeds in convincing Mani to conduct the funeral at 12:30 pm. Suddenly, Chellappan's spirit apparently possesses Mani, demanding his funeral to be held at 10:30 am no matter what. Thavidu even calls Chellappan's younger brother, Nanji, a former rowdy, to Mani's house. Ilavarasu and Mani start bickering, and Ilavarasu mocks Mani's late daughter Poorni, who Mani intends to bury Chellappan's body along with.
