‘Raayan’ delves into the lives of four siblings who escape their village and seek refuge in the city. As they grow up, each sibling adopts a distinct role: Manickam (Kalidas Jayaram) is a principled college student, Muthu (Sundeep Kishan) is impulsive, and Raayan (Dhanush) assumes the role of the responsible protector. The siblings’ story revolves around their sister Durga (Dushara Vijayan) and Raayan’s efforts to marry her, which thrusts him into a conflict between rival gangsters Sethu (SJ Suryah) and Durai (Saravanan). Adding to the tension, a new cop (Prakash Raj) manipulates the situation, aiming to restore order in the city. As challenges escalate, Raayan’s determination to safeguard his family drives the narrative forward.
