Hemal Hemal Ranasinghe is a happy-go-lucky middle-class family guy who spends time playing carrom in the streets with his friends Janith, Mahendra Perera. His father (Jayalath Manoratne) and he keep falling into minor misunderstandings, and he indulges in a hopeless romance with a strange girl (Udari Perera) who he meets at a bus stop. When he is caught in the act of stealing a pittance from his father for booze with his friends, Hemal questions his father’s responsibility towards his upbringing. His angry father gives Hemal some of his savings and tells him to do something with his life. Hemal purchases a TVS Apache bike instead and finds a job. The bike eventually saves his life from a freak incident and gets lost, subjecting him to interminable anguish as he searches for his bike. When his family members asks him about his bike, he tells them that he has given it for dealer service.
Hemal comes into conflict with the underworld when he witnesses a brutal murder planned by a gang of Smuggling don, Brando Jackson Anthony and his accomplices. Hemal finds out that his bike was stolen by a petty bike thief who turns out to be in connection with Brando's younger brother G.J.I (Gajan Kanesshan). Hemal traces down the culprit as Chamara and hands him over to the local police station. A formal complaint is lodged on Chamara on the same night. Later that night Hemal confesses to his family that his bike was stolen. His Family is very upset with him due to his irresponsible behavior. The next morning G.J.I visits Hemal's residence and threatens him to withdraw the complaint against Chamara. When Hemal refuses, a fight breaks between Hemal and G.J.I, where G.J.I is joined by few of his accomplices, Hemal manages to fight them all and leaves G.J.I beaten and embarrassed among the public. Brando returns home in bail after a murder charge. When he finds out what happened to G.J.I, he gets furious and sends his henchmen to kill Hemal without knowing the reason for his brother's embarrassment. Meanwhile, Hemal, along with his friend and auto driver Kumar Mahendra Perera, meets Brando at his own residence. G.J.I is not home at that time. Hemal tells the truth to Brando but refuses to believe that his brother G.J.I and his men stole his bike. After hearing from his close ally Wasantha Pubudu Chathuranga, Brando believes Hemal, apologizing for what happened and promises Hemal that he will do whatever he can to get his bike back. But it was too late for Hemal's father Jayalath Manoratne who receives the attack from G.J.I's men. He was admitted in a hospital and Hemal breaks down after knowing that his father may never walk again after his right leg is paralysed by the attack. Brando, G.J.I and their men visit Hemal to condole and apologize for what happened this time. Hemal turns down the apology and again an immediate fight was about to break between Hemal and G.J.I before Brando separates them both. Although he wants to stay away, Hemal invariably gets dragged into rubbing shoulders with the criminals who now target his family to seek revenge.
