Nayyapudai

Vellaichamy is a retired army professional who lives individually in Chennai and takes care of the children from the impoverished families of the neighbourhood. With his brave act he saves a public bus taken hostage by the accomplices of a don who has been arrested for smuggling redstanders. Vellaichamy gives refuge to Vijay, a reporter in a prominent Tamil news channel and his colleague, as they have eloped as a couple. Meanwhile, Vellaichamy crosses swords with the local don Baby Anaconda by wreaking havoc to some of his criminal activities and a corrupt police officer Satyamurthy who is loyal to the don. The rest is how Vellaichamy with the help of Vijay takes on Anaconda and uses Satyamurthy for that.
