They follow 26 January as a black day as the democratic republic was formed against kingdoms. To get back the provinces and monarchy rule back to them, all take owe with Narendra Bhupathy a physically challenged King and his son Ilayaraja Bhupathy as their leaders.

Natesan (K. Bhagyaraj) is a poor auto-rickshaw driver who takes care of orphan children at his home. He manages to feed and educate the children with the meagre amount he earns and does not accept any kind of help from anybody. Meenakshi is a press reporter for a magazine named 'Bakirangam' which has a very poor circulation. To improve its flow, the magazine's Editor (Janagaraj)) insists her to interview a rapist who is capable of describing a rape point by point. Meenakshi scares to do the assignment but accepts as she has no other go. Natesan visits 'Bakirangam' office to advertise for rental home and he is diverted to Meenakshi's cabin. Meenakshi misunderstands him to be the rapist and scares for whatever he looks and does and at once stage she shouts for help. Angried Natesan explains who he is and why he has come and Meenakshi apologises for her misunderstanding. Meenakshi asks his home for rent but demands that no children to be present as it is big disturbance for her work in the house where she is staying. Natesan lies to her that no children is present in the house as he needs a tenant immediately for the rent due to his financial situation. Meenakshi visits the house and gets irritated on the mess inside the place but Natesan manages to grab advance amount from her. Meenakshi finds there are lot of children in the home and demands him the money she gave. But Natasen says since he did not give receipt for the amount she gave as advance, she cannot claim her money back and because of this she stays unwillingly in that house.

Meenakshi is irritated by the children and at one stage she punishes them for their mischief. She shouts at Natesan for the children's act and demands that no one should enter her room. All the children apologize to her for their acts which breaks her heart. She understands that it is the nature of children to be mischief and becomes their friend. She also understands how Natesan takes care of them despite his poor condition. Meanwhile, Natesan returns her advance amount by mortgaging his auto-rickshaw and asks her to vacate the house. But Meenakshi and the children manage to change his mind and let her stay. Except for the small fights both Natesan and Meenakshi are attracted towards each other.

Natesan is frequently visited by an old 'Mental' like looking old man who demands money from Natesan most of the time with any reason. Natesan is irritated by his acts and yet he supports him with the money. The old man is actually a scientist who has invented many things. Natesan gets angry that old man cheated him once and visits his home and surprised to see all inventions. The old man explains that he is inventing a machine which makes people invisible. He also shows him a receiver which can receive abnormal frequencies powerful enough to intrude Indian defence. Natesan hears an intrusion that a famous scientist shall be killed by some people. So he rushes to police station to warn them. The scientist is saved because of his warning. Hence he earns enmity of Raja Bhupathy as he is behind the master plan of killing the scientist. Bhupathy's men sets off to find the receiver in Natesan's house and find that the receiver is with the old man. The old scientist finally invents 'invisible' making machine. But he is killed by Bhupathy's men. Before dying he handovers the machine to Natesan and tells him to fight for justice in the country with this. Natesan and one of his child test the machine and sees it work. Hence Natesan uses the machine and becomes invisible. He once saves Meenakshi from Bhupathy's men when she tried to find their truth and got trapped. The invisible man introduces himself as 'Vaathiyaar' (nickname of Thiru M.G.R) who has come back to world to fight justice. Soon Natesan gains fame as invisible Vaathiyaar due to his good deeds for society. Since he does good things and does not trouble public and government, police does not arrest him. The child who is the only person to know about Natesan's invisibility finds that the invisible man can be seen through 'Red' colour and he wears red glasses. Meenakshi is very proud that she is friend of 'Vaathiyaar' and tells everybody she is his pet. This irritates Natesan and once nose-cuts her in front of everybody to teach her a lesson. Natesan's inferiority complex prevents him to propose his love for Meenakshi and he expresses his love to her as 'Vaathiyaar' hoping that she would love the hero. But Meenakshi rejects his proposal as she reveals that she loves a poor auto driver who is gentle man and tells Invisible Man to go out of her life. Natesan reveals his secret to her and is very happy to have won her love.

Bhupathys find that invisible man is the auto-driver who spoiled all their plans. Hence they spoil his name by troubling people and tells people that they are allies of 'Mayaavi' (magic man). Hence Maayavi now becomes villain for people. Bhupathy blackmails Natesan to give the invisible machine else all his children shall be killed. They also kill one of the child as he refused to handover. Hence the child who knows about invisible man gives the machine to Bhupathy. Now Ilayaraja Bhupathy becomes invisible and starts to loot money from people, performs larcenies in banks and threatens all people. Narendra Bhupathy demands the rule of Tamil Nadu state under him else he would kill people in number of 1500s until government is handed over and kills 3000 people in school and train to realise the seriousness. Fearing on his acts, governor agrees to handover the state to him but actually at behind police plan to arrest Bhupathys and get back the state from their threat.

Natesan finds about everything and sets off to save the city from Bhupathy. He tells policemen about his plan and enters the place as a TV cameraman where 'Oath of Office' ceremony by senior Bhupathy take place. He uses red filter to capture junior Bhupathy and attacks him. But he cannot withstand as camera breaks in the chaos created by Bhupathy. Meenkashi uses a giant light used by a circus and covers with red color dress and junior Bhupathy who is invisible is now clearly visible to everyone. Natesan manages to escape from both Bhupathys when both of them tried to kill him instead killed one another. In the incident the invisible machine breaks. Natesan concludes that any invention which can be misued against people should not welcomed and let it break.

Meenakshi and Natesan finally marry.
