Anbu accompanies Sevagapandian in his political meetings and treats his cousin Vinodhini as his own sister. Vinodhini falls in love with Satish ([[Vishnu (TV actor)|Vishnu]]) and discloses this to Anbu, requesting to convince Sevagapandian. Anbu waits for the right time to disclose about Vinodhini’s love to Sevagapandian. Meanwhile, Anbu falls in love with Sailaja ([[Anjali (film actress)|Anjali]]), who happens to be Satish's sister, for which she reciprocates as well.<br />
<br />
Sevagapandian is against love marriages and starts looking for an alliance for Vinodhini. Vinodhini requests her father to postpone her wedding for a few years as she prefers to get employed, for which Sevagapandian refuses.

However, it is revealed that Vinodhini has gone to Coimbatore for a job interview. Anbu feels bad for Sevagapandian’s behavior and apologizes to Shailaja.<br />

==Review==<br />
Times of India gave the movie 3 stars stating " Two warring groups in a village, romance that blossoms between the youngsters in these groups, and a happy ending! Before you say 'Yawn!', here's the news. Mapla Singam is actually not bad. The film seems to have been cut from the same cloth as films like Varuthapadatha Valibar Sangam. Sivakarthikeyan has made a career out of these films, and Vemal's attempts have largely gone unnoticed. Perhaps this one could do the magic.".<ref>{{cite web | url=http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/entertainment/tamil/movie-reviews/Mapla-Singam/movie-review/51389618.cms | title=Mapla Singam Movie Review | date=14 March 2016 | accessdate=24 April 2016 | author=M Suganth}}</ref><br />
