Meanwhile, Chella Ravi Shankar, a rowdy and a womaniser, meets Ravis friend Uma Sanchita Padukone in a public place, where she is taking donations for some cause, and immediately develops an attraction to her. When Uma asks Chella to contribute money, he willingly donates, but violates her modesty by placing the money between her saree blouse. When Ravi finds out what had happened to Uma, he comes to her defense and beats up Chella, hospitalising him. His troubles start from there as Chellas father, a don named Vedanayagam Salim Ghouse, with the help of his righthand man, a corrupt police officer Kattabomman Sayaji Shinde, begin to create havoc in Ravis life. Ravi is soon thrown into jail on a false case of drug smuggling and is expelled from college. Only Suseela is willing to help him. She goes to Devaraj and pleads with him to help Ravi, but Devaraj initially refuses to help as his entire family had died at the hands of Vedanayagam and he himself was blinded by Vedanayagam because he had taken action against Vedanayagam and his gang. However, with the help of his henchmen, he saves Ravi from being killed in a fake encounter led by Kattabomman. It is at this stage that Ravi takes up a new persona called Police Ravi to clean up the illegal activities of Vedanayagam and instill hope in the public, something that Devaraj was unable to do.In the process however, Vedanayagam kills Ravis close friend Sugu Sathyan Sivakumar, prompting Ravi to kill Chella in retribution. Vedanayagam decides soon after to become a minister to prevent Ravi from targeting him and his activities. As Ravi finally plans to kill the newly swornin minister Vedanayagam, the police arrive to arrest Ravi. However, Ravi sees Devaraj in the crowd and announces Vedanayagams location to him just as he is being arrested, allowing Devaraj to assassinate Vedanayagam, effectively taking his revenge. ........
