Five college friends – Munna, Babu Kalyanam "Bob Gally", Juju, Krishna, and Kumar – are young adults who engage in reckless behaviour – smoking, drinking, flirting with girls, etc. – much to their parents' chagrin. The friends befriend a middle-aged man named Mangalam, and meet Harini and her friends. While Munna's parents are out of town, they hire a prostitute Rani, but all of them back out at the last moment. Munna and Harini eventually start a romantic relationship that infuriates their parents. When the parents collectively decide to separate the group, Munna and Harini decide to elope. With support from Mangalam and the boys, Munna and Harini hastily get married in Tirupati without their parents' consent. Consequently, a confrontation leads the parents to expel the boys and Harini, who vow to succeed independently.
The boys and Harini work odd jobs to earn money, and eventually form a band called Boys to fund their education. After earning initial success with modern versions of Tamil devotional songs, Boys are investigated and incarcerated under the Prevention of Terrorism Act for naïvely associating with Naxalites and making extremist songs. They are eventually rescued by Mangalam, who proves their innocence through great difficulty. Recognizing their natural talent, Mangalam encourages them to pursue music as a career, and joins them as their manager. Boys work hard to pursue opportunities and secure a contract to record an album with Sony. However, a drunk Krishna reveals to Harini about the boys' earlier encounter with Rani, causing Harini to angrily leave Munna and return to her parents. The boys try to track Rani down to prove they did no wrong. Kumar spots her on a bus but dies after being run over.
Determined to fulfill their contract to Sony, Mangalam and the boys try to persuade Harini’s parents to let her record an album with them. Despite initial disagreement, Harini's parents eventually agree on the condition that Harini and Munna divorce and never see each other again. Munna reluctantly accepts this arrangement for the sake of his friends. Boys soon record and release their album to great success and fame, and even perform live on MTV, dedicating their performance to Kumar. Despite their success, Munna and Harini proceed for their divorce. At the court, however, Mangalam hatches a plan to deliberately make Harini jealous and reconcile her with Munna before their divorce is finalised, which succeeds as Harini furiously and possessively reunites with Munna.
