Aathi ({{audio|Ta-ஆதி.ogg|pronunciation}}) is a 2006 Tamil action family drama film starring Vijay and Trisha in the lead roles. It is a remake of the Telugu film Athanokkade. This film was directed by Ramana and was produced by S. A. Chandrasekhar.[1] It was also dubbed in Telugu as Neneraa Aadhi and in Hindi as Aadhi Narayan in 2006.[2][3] The story revolves around two college students turned lovers taking revenge by assassinating a common criminal gang responsible for their family's death.

Plot

The film starts by with Anjali (Trisha Krishnan) sitting on a bench in Rameswaram feeding a white pigeon by a calm ocean. A retired police officer Shankar (Devan) comes and sits on the bench by her side, and they exchange pleasantries. Suddenly, she whips out a knife and kills him with the help of her maternal uncle Ramachandran (Nassar), while saying that she has been waiting for this moment for many years. She then comes back to Chennai with Ramachandran to attend college.

After that, the scene shifts to Aathi (Vijay), who lives in New Delhi with his foster family consisting of his parents Mani (Manivannan) and Lakshmi (Seetha), who are both loving to him, and his sister. He takes up a course in a college in Chennai against his foster parents' wishes, while he is actually on a personal mission to eliminate the people behind the murder of his blood family. Unable to be separated from Aadhi, his foster family comes to Chennai along with him.

It is revealed that Anjali is studying in the same college as Aadhi, and she also has her own agenda to seek revenge on her family's killers, and she is assisted by Ramachandran. Meanwhile, RDX (Sai Kumar), a local gangster, enters and is shown to have a dispute with Pattabhi (Rajan P. Dev). To exact their revenge, Ramachandran attempts to kill Sadha (Karate Raja), one of RDX's henchmen, but fails to do so since Aadhi kills Sadha with a gun he was armed with. At first naturally, RDX assumes the killer can be none other than Pattabhi, so he kills him. However, Aathi arrives on the scene with help from Bullet (Vivek), his college classmate who is a comical rowdy. Aathi threatens RDX telling that he was the one who killed Sadha, and that he will also kill Abdullah (Adithya Menon). As typical and usual, Abdullah gets angry and goes to kill Aathi but fails, and Aathi kills Abdullah, while his foster family witnessed this act with horror. On being questioned by his foster family, Aathi tells his story.

Aathi's biological father (Prakash Raj) was an honest cop who arrested one of RDX's henchmen. It is revealed that Anjali and Aadhi are from the same family as Anjali's father (Livingston) is Aathi's father's brother-in-law. RDX pays Aathi's house a visit and asks his grandfather to let his henchmen go. When Aathi's grandfather (Vijayakumar) refuses, RDX threatens them, only to find knives being held at him by Aadhi and his cousins. Aathi's father arrives and arrests RDX. Infuriated, he pays them a visit with some of his henchmen and Shankar. Together, they murder their whole extended family. Only Anjali, Ramachandran, and Aathi survived the blast that annihilated their family. After the house is blown up by RDX, Aadhi escapes and is taken in by a couple who later became his foster parents.

On finding out his past, Aathi's foster parents request him to come back to New Delhi, but he refuses. He then takes them to the railway station, but is nearly ambushed by RDX's men. He succeeds on defeating them in a fight and meets RDX, warning him to bring his brother Robert (Subbaraju) from Dubai, whom he promises to kill. Soon, Robert arrives, and in revenge, kills Ramachandran, while challenging Aathi to meet him at RDX's place. Aathi came after finding out that RDX had Anjali kidnapped and held hostage by his henchmen in the library of their college, which happens to be the old house that Aathi, Anjali, and their family escaped after killing Robert with his own gun. RDX's men held Anjali hostage, but she is saved by Bullet and the other students in the college. In a thrilling climax, Aathi kills RDX and is shown to be leaving and reuniting with Anjali, the only one left in his family.
