Plot
Part 1 (Episodes 1-454)
There was a smart woman named Abhinaya who liked to follow her family's customs. One day, she met a rough guy named Vetri who didn't understand how important it was to follow the proper rules for getting married. Abhinaya helped a couple get married in a temple, and that's when a fortune teller came and said that Abhinaya would marry a troublemaker, even if she didn't believe it.
Abhinaya was trying to help a couple who got married secretly. While they were arguing, Vetri got angry and put a special necklace called a thaali around Abhinaya's neck. He felt sorry for it later, though. Abhinaya's father and Vetri were upset when they forced her to go live in a poor area as a newlywed, even though she was surprised and sad about it. Vetri didn't listen when Abhinaya tried to explain the meaning of love to him. But Abhinaya discovered the truth about Vetri and why he changed so suddenly. She also found out that her friend Radha secretly loved Vetri.
As time went on, Vetri and Abhinaya went through many ups and downs that brought them closer together. Vetri even said that he liked Abhinaya when she was taken away. But they were not allowed to enter their house. However, Vetri's other family members agreed to let them live on the terrace next to the house.
