Screenplay
RED (Ajith Kumar) (Revolution, Education, Development) is an orphan who has grown up to be the local don in Madurai. Naturally, he possesses a heart of gold, and when not bashing up bad guys, he spends his time forcing schools to accept students without donations and taking care of orphans. Cheeni (Salim Ghouse) is his biggest enemy. RED falls for Gayathri (Priya Gill), the daughter of his friend and confidante Narayanan (Manivannan), and helps her without her knowledge. She too likes him but wants him to give up his life of violence. Meanwhile, reporter Manimegalai (Rajesh) for Ananda Vikatan begins to serialize RED's story under the name Aadhi, and it becomes quite the rage among readers. At last, Red kills Cheeni and reunites with Gayathri. Hence, the movie ends with a happy note.
