Official trailer and plot of Vaa Vaathiyaar
Vaa Vaathiyaar follows the story of DSP Rameshwaran, also known as Ramu, a police officer who is raised by his grandfather to follow the ideals and principles of the late MG Ramachandran (MGR). As a staunch follower of MGR, his grandfather believes his grandson to be the spiritual successor of the legendary actor, and Ramu is constantly encouraged to stand for the justice MGR represented.
Although Rameshwaran initially tries to uphold the values instilled by his grandfather, he soon becomes another cog in the system of corruption, aligning himself with powerful and shady individuals.
However, as his life progresses, Ramu (played by Karthi) inadvertently develops an alter ego called Vaathiyar, emulating the values of MGR and fighting against injustice. How this vigilante topples the criminals in his path, and whether he ultimately realizes the values his grandfather tried to teach him, is explored in the film.
