| The film opens with a flashback, chronicling the childhood of Nandini (Aishwarya Rai Bachchan) and Aditha Karikalan (Vikram). Nandini was raised in a priestly family, and Aditha, training for his future as king, met during Nandini's visit to Pazhayarai. Love sparks at first sight, coinciding with Arulmozhi's (Jayam Ravi) (Ponniyin Selvan) horse race victory. Kundavai (Trisha) tries to befriend Nandini, but a playful moment with Aditha leads to Nandini's forced departure from the palace. Kundavai, discovering Nandini's orphan status, forbids her from palace visits. Nandini then deliberately ignores Aditha's attempts to reconnect.Aditha informs Nandini of his imminent two-year military deployment. Saddened, Nandini prays daily by the river where he departed. Upon his return, they confess their love. Despite Kundavai's objections to Nandini's beauty and non-royal status, Aditha Karikalan and Nandini hope for a happy marriage. Facing opposition, they plan to introduce Nandini as the future queen. However, Kundavai and Sembiyan Mahadevi (Jayachitra) forcefully expel Nandini during Aditha Karikalan's absence, leading to his devastation upon learning of her departure and refuge under Veerapandiyan (Nasser).In the current time-line of 968 AD, the presumed death of Arulmozhi Varman, saddens the empire. Rashtrakuta King Khottiga (Babu Antony) was amassing an army to invade Tanjore, meanwhile Pandya assassins wanted to avenge Veerpandiyan's (Nassar) death. Sundara Chola's uncle Madhurantakan wants to stake his claim to the Kingdom against his mother's wishes. Parvateshvar is the treasurer of the Chola Kingdom and supports Madhurantakan. Nandini is married to Parvateshvar. Nadini was secretly supporting Pandyan rebels. Nandini also tricked Sundara Chozhar to pass an order to capture Arulmozhi in Lanka and bring him back. But the ship bringing him back sank in stormy waters. Aditha is enraged at Nandini for Arulmozhi's death and heads to Tanjore to confront her.Parthibendran is Aditha's friend and was bringing Arulmozhi back to Chola when the ship sank in a storm.

Parthibendran Pallavan (Vikram Prabhu), smitten by Nandini, is manipulated into diverting Aditha Karikalan to Kadambur for the empire's well-being. Nandini says that she only wants Aditha to be safe. This way Aditha no longer plans to take his army to Tanjore to confront Madhurantakan.

Later, she, Ravidasan, and others plot to assassinate Aditha Karikalan, Sundara Chozhar (Prakash Raj), and Ponniyin Selvan. Nandini says that Ravidas failed to kill Ponniyin and cannot even dream of touching a far more capable Aditha.
