The story of Vijay-Nayantara starrer 'Villu' is said to be loosely based on a Hindi film that released around 15 years back. A gang of anti-social elements hatches a conspiracy and kills an army officer after levelling charges of 'traitor' on him. Because of these charges, the army officer's funeral turns out to be a normal affair instead of a government sponsored one, given to those who lay down their precious lives in the service of the nation.
The army officer's widow, our hero's son, narrates these incidents to the hero in his younger days and he subsequently develops into a world-beater. She entrusts him with the job of proving his father's innocence and mitigate the 'black mark' heaped on him by the gang. The 'man with a mission', our hero enrolls himself into the territorial army, murders one-by-one all those responsible for the death of his father.
He then collects many an award from the army, some of which meant for his father, and returns to his native place to proclaim with proof his father's innocence. The 'military' backdrop has been changed and sutured according to the needs of the Tamilian 'culture'.
