The story is about three different women who work at a fashion export company. Janaki (Urvashi) is a typist who lives with her husband and her baby to earn for a living as her husband lost his job in a factory. Pappamma (Rohini) is a house keeper who lives with her drunkard rickshaw pulling husband and earns for both their living and her husband's drinking expense. Satya (Revathi) a computer graduate and designer who waits to get married. Her marriage was stopped by her once when the groom's family listed a lot for dowry. She joins the fashion company as a fashion designer and stays in a hostel. All the women in the company face a common threat in the form of manager Pandian (Nassar) who is a womanizer. He harasses his female employees in one way or other but the women tolerate his torture due to their family circumstances.

Pandian tries to move close with Satya and unaware of Pandian's intention Satya at first dines with him. This isolates her from other employees. Pandian tries to impress her by presenting a silk saree but Satya insults him by saying that only a father or husband should present saree to a woman and what he has done is pure idiotic. This gains the friendship of Janaki and Pappamma to her and Satya understands about Pandian. A small daily clash occurs between Pappamma and Janaki whenever Pappamma misplaces rat poison besides sugar and Janaki mixes rat poison by mistake in the coffee of Pandian's as both sugarand poison look alike. Due to Satya's friendship Janaki becomes bold enough to face her supervisor and she insults her in front of everyone. Hence the supervisor tries to revenge by hiding an important file which is under Janaki's custody. But Pappamma helps her by revealing the truth to Pandian. All the three women are much frustrated by Pandian's attitude and are finding some way to stop his misdeeds towards them.
