Classmates

In 1991, Murali is a charismatic singer while Suku leads student activism. Thara is the daughter of an MLA and a gifted classical dancer, Satheeshan is his rival, and Raziya and Pious are central to the group. The campus atmosphere is charged with friendships, romance, and political tension, setting up a tragedy that will echo years later at the reunion.

Satheeshan steals Thara’s letter intended for Suku, hoping to derail their relationship. Pious and Suku plot to recover it, but the midnight attempt fails. The missing letter seeds a public scandal and fractures the group’s trust.

Raziya and Murali, who are in love, decide to meet in the generator room to elope. Murali does not show up that night, leaving Raziya waiting and increasingly anxious about their future. The moment foreshadows a deeper tragedy tied to the campus tensions.

The next day, Thara’s letter becomes public, and Satheeshan accuses Suku of staging the incident for personal gain. A vicious fight breaks out between Suku and Satheeshan, tearing apart old alliances. Thara ends her relationship with Suku in the heat of the controversy.

Murali’s body is discovered in the generator room by Raziya, triggering her own nervous breakdown. The discovery confirms the night’s tension as a deadly turning point for everyone involved. The campus reels from the shock and confusion surrounding his death.

A few days after Murali’s funeral, Suku leaves his studies and travels to Mumbai to pursue a diamond business. His ally Shantharam helps him establish the venture and arranges a marriage to Ratna, though Suku and Ratna later divorce. The distant city becomes the stage for Suku’s subsequent rise and onward detachment from his college life.

In 2006, the long-awaited reunion brings Thara back to face the old wounds. She reveals that she came to apologize for the breakup and explains that Satheeshan’s political maneuvers framed Suku. She also reveals what she learned about Suku’s marriage and divorce years later.

Thara and Suku reconnect when she tearfully apologizes, and he agrees to reconciliation. Their renewed bond shows that Suku’s true character has endured beyond the misinterpretations of the past. The reunion rekindles a fragile hope for their future together.

Suku admits that on the night of the fateful events he hid in the generator room and attacked someone in the darkness, mistaking them for Satheeshan’s men. The person turned out to be Murali, whose death he could never forget. This confession explains the weight of guilt that has haunted him since college.

Raziya reveals that she had gone to the generator room to remember Murali and overheard Suku and Thara. The truth deepens the emotional entanglements and fuels her own lingering anger and pain. The revelation shifts the moral balance of the relationships involved.

Consumed by rage, Raziya visits Suku and strangles him with a guitar string, staging it as a suicide. She soon regrets the act as the consequences of her crime begin to unfold. The attempt effectively changes the course of the reunion’s emotional arc.

Suku regains consciousness and tells the police that he tried to take his own life. He asks Iyer to kill him to escape the curses from the past, but instead receives forgiveness from Iyer, Lakshmi, and Raziya. They urge him to be with Thara, breaking the chains of guilt that held them all.

The family resolves the tangled emotions: Suku is urged to be with Thara, and forgiveness mends old wounds. Suku forgives Raziya, and the two lovers begin to envision a future together with Thara by their side.

Thara embraces Suku as they commit to a future after fifteen years apart. The reunion closes on a note of forgiveness and renewed love, with the couple ready to rebuild their life together. The community witnesses a hopeful closing to a long, painful saga.
