'Padikathavan and 10th failed' as his father refers to him, doubles up as a petty goon when his family members are in trouble. Meanwhile, one of his relatives is nearly married. One of his friends suggest that he falls in love with a highly educated girl, so earnestly he looks around by hovering around women's colleges. So he makes himself fall in love with Gayathri (Tamaannah) a rich girl who after a few misunderstandings falls for him. In turn, he starts to honestly love her.But, at first, things doesn't work out the way Rocky planned! Meanwhile there are some goons after her, as her father is Samarasinga Reddy (Suman) a notorious don in Andhra. The protagonist goes to Assult Arumugam (Vivek), a thug-for-hire, to help him save Gayathri from her father. Our hero saves her from her dad's rival (Sayaji Shinde) and follows to her home in Hyderabad, where he realizes that another Tirunelveli goon Kasi Anandan (Atul Kulkarni), whose brother he accidentally killed in a flashback, has put a price on his head. Rocky goes and settles the matter by fighting and winning against Kasi Anandan.
