He returns to India and attempts to materialise his dream of providing free medical treatment and education for the people. However his endeavours are put a standstill by a wealthy and highly influential businessman "Adiseshan" played by Suman. The movie opens with a masked person who is taken to the Central Jail in Chennai. As a fellow inmate asks the reason for his imprisonment the man replies that he has been imprisoned for his desire to do good for the people. Gradually the masked person is revealed to be Sivaji. The story is then narrated in the flashback mode to the audiences. To Adiseshan, the ‘Sivaji Foundation’ would be a competition as he too runs hospitals and educational institutions. But these centers are profit making establishments for him. As Sivaji plans to provide all kinds of facilities cost free he is opposed to the idea of building Sivaji Foundation. By making use of his political influence Adiseshan repeals the permits that are to be issued by the Government for the Sivaji foundation.
![]() In the meantime Sivaji comes across Adiseshan and the latter mocks him by giving him a one-rupee coin and asks him to survive with it. Sivaji, using the very coin, turns the tables around. Sivaji now has a plan. He guesses that there is around 2000 million rupees in India that are untaxed and illegal. He finds out such people who have untaxed property and threaten them with legal consequences unless they donate half their property. His plan works out and after the wealth is transferred to the bank accounts around the world, Sivaji informs the Income Tax Vigilance Department about such people and the property held by them. Sivaji’s associates donate the transferred money to his foundation so that it can be used legitimately. Hence Sivaji once again sets out to build his dream project in order to provide quality education, free services and employment to people in each and every district of Tamil Nadu. His enemies are dumbfounded. Enraged they try to find out the secret behind his success. They take advantage of Tamizhselvi’s innocence and threaten to kill Sivaji if she does not bring all the information. In order to save his life Tamizhselvi gives away all the information on the illicit money transfers and Sivaji is arrested with proof. At this moment the scene returns to the jail where Sivaji has been imprisoned.

Although Adiseshan is convinced that the new man is Sivaji in disguise he is unable to prove this. Ravichandran promises to avenge Sivaji’s death and throws a challenge at Adiseshan.
