Plot
Lakshmikanthan (K. S. Ravikumar), a theatre artiste, who is enjoying his retired life, is a happy man now as his long dream of owning a home comes true. As someone who has seen his father's struggles without having a home, he is so attached with the newly built home and shares the same with his daughter, son and daughter-in-law. But little did he know that his happiness will be short-lived. One day, a few goons who work for Senathipathi (Mime Gopi), a dreaded politician in the locality, paint their party symbol on Lakshmikanthan's house wall. Upon complaining to the nearby sub-inspector (Srinath), a miffed Sena uses his influence and ensures that the power supply to Lakshmi's house is cut off. Lakshmi's friends restore power supply in a far-fetched, but partly enjoyable scene and this irks Sena again. He, in return, destroys his house wall, after which both of them declare war against each other. Lakshmi is a middle-class common man who hardly has any influence while Sena, on the other hand, is close to being chosen by his party as the MLA candidate.
