Anbanavan Asaradhavan Adangadhavan

In Dubai, a cop named Ruby interrogates a pensioner. In an attempt to capture the dreaded don Michael. The man narrates Michael's story. In 1992, in Madurai, Tamil Nadu, Madurai Michael is a notorious thug who works for a smuggler named Senthamarai and kills for money. He spends his time with his sidekicks, Somu and Sabi. Michael falls for Selvi, a girl from his town. Selvi rejects him initially but later reciprocates his love. She asks him to leave his gangster life and relocate to Dubai, starting a new life. Michael half-heartedly accepts this. However, an enemy from the same gang backstabs Michael by turning into a witness for many murders committed by Michael, and the latter is in jail.

Michael then escapes prison with the help of his friends and finds out that Selvi is soon to marry a man of her parents' choice. Understanding that he must be on the run forever, Michael leaves Selvi and migrates to Dubai, where he rises to become a dreaded gangster. Back in Dubai, Sabi dies soon after narrating the story. Ruby and the other cops figure out that Michael will be over 50 years old and will be fearing for his life, hiding somewhere. They focus on Chennai and send Michael's photo to the police in Chennai. But Michael is revealed to live lavishly and happily in Chennai under the name "Ashwin Thatha".

Ashwin has all the money he wants except for a woman. So he decides to get married. While interviewing probable brides, he falls in love with a much younger girl called Ramya. She and her father run a retirement home. Ashwin mistakes Ramya's friendly talks as a reciprocation of his love and is ecstatic when she decides to tell her father about her love. At a ceremony, Ramya informs her father that she loves someone and wants to marry him, but the age difference might be problematic. To Ashwin's surprise, Ramya introduces a younger man, Shiva, who looks like Ashwin. It turns out that Shiva is only a few years younger than Ramya, and they pursue a long-distance relationship. He is settled in the US.

A heartbroken Ashwin, overwhelmed by his emotions, resorts to drinking and becomes increasingly angry. In his desperation, he kidnaps Shiva. To further his plan, he hires a prominent makeup artist to transform his appearance, intending to use their resemblance to pose as Shiva and win over Ramya.

Several months after the film's release, producer S. Michael Rayappan and Adhik publicly criticised Silambarasan for his alleged unprofessional behaviour during production. They claimed that the first schedule was delayed by two months because no actress wanted to work with Silambarasan due to his reputation. Additionally, they stated that he insisted on moving the shoot from Madurai to Dindigul because he disliked the warm climate in Madurai. Even after relocating, he allegedly refused to shoot in public areas or on Sundays and often did not show up according to the agreed schedule. During the first schedule, Silambarasan reportedly refused to film a song sequence, unfairly requested that Saran be replaced after she had completed her scenes, demanded the shoot be moved from Dubai to London, and failed to meet the script's requirement to reduce his body weight. In the second schedule, he allegedly refused to undergo makeup sessions, arrive on time, pay for his hotel expenses, and demanded a hotel room on the East Coast Road and the dismissal of a production executive. Silambarasan also allegedly cancelled the third schedule, demanded that the film be released in two parts, and sent his team to Thailand at the producers' expense. He later refused to co-operate in completing necessary scenes and half-heartedly provided dubbing work. Rayappan revealed that out of an agreed schedule of seventy-six days, Silambarasan only worked for thirty-eight days, leading to the wastage of Bhatia and Saran's dates.{{Cite news |date=1 December 2017 |title=AAA producer reveals shocking truths about Simbu! |url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/entertainment/tamil/movies/news/aaa-producer-reveals-shocking-truths-about-simbu/articleshow/61881295.cms |url-status=live |archive-url=https://archive.today/20250428023524/https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/entertainment/tamil/movies/news/aaa-producer-reveals-shocking-truths-about-simbu/articleshow/61881295.cms |archive-date=28 April 2025 |access-date=28 April 2025 |work=The Times of India}}{{Cite AV media |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=meW3LF980fQ&themeRefresh=1 |title=Simbu's AAA Flop - Harsh Truth Revealed by Producer & Director {{!}} STR {{!}} TN 654 |date=30 November 2017 |publisher=Behindwoods TV |access-date=29 April 2025 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20250428025909/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=meW3LF980fQ |archive-date=28 April 2025 |url-status=live |via=YouTube}} Sources close to Silambarasan countered that Rayappan failed to pay his full remuneration, which caused him to avoid many shoot days.
