Irandam Ulagam story & synopsis

Irandam Ulagam is about two stories which unfolds in two different planets, our Earth and an exoplanet(Terrestrial).In that planet, there is a divine woman called Amma, who dreams of the flowers blossoming again due to Love, which is nowhere to be found in that world.

The story that happens in earth is about a timid medical student Ramya (Anushka Shetty) who has a crush towards an academic mathematician Madhu Balakrishnan (Arya), but he initially refuses her offer for marriage. Later, Madhu falls in love with her and proposes marriage, but this time, she rejects his offer citing that her family had arranged her marriage. While on a trip to Goa, Madhu wins Ramya's heart while her fiance cancels the marriage citing low dowry. She dies in a freak accident and this is followed by the death of his paralysed father too. Depressed by the sudden turn of events, Madhu becomes a vagabond in Goa. He sees an apparition of his dead father that tells him death is an illusion. Later, in one of the tourist spots, he follows an empty car to a hilltop. He gets injured and faints while trying to drive the car.

The story moves parallel in the alternate world in a relatively primitive kingdom which protects the immortal Amma, where the son of a military commander, Maravan (Arya), falls in love with a working class orphan woman Varna (Anushka Shetty). Maravan, though fearless, does not take interest in martial arts and roams around the kingdom drinking with his friends. Varna, on the other hand, is interested in a military career though she picks and packs wild mushrooms to eke out a living. She also has the desire to protect Amma from the enemy kingdom. While gatecrashing a military admissions exam for Amma's protection, the King condemns Varna to his harem. Maravan pleads the king to release Varna and the king in return challenges Marvan to get hold of Lion's skin within three days. Maravan, though inexperienced, fights with the lion which was never slain and releases Varna. With the behest of the King, Varna is forced to marry Maravan, which goes against her free will. So, she tries to kills herself after trying to attack the King. But Amma saves her and the king exiles her. Depressed Maravan resumes drinking. Challenged by his friends, Maravan climbs a sacred mountain called Swamimalai.

Meanwhile, with the special powers of Amma, an inter-planetary portal opens briefly between Maravan in Swamimalai and Madhu in Goa. Maravan rescues the fainted Madhu from the car and takes him to Amma for treatment. People of the alternate world celebrate Madhu mistaking him as angel. He meets Varna (who looks like Ramya) developing affection for her, which makes the flowers to blossom. The enemies of the kingdom capture Amma while the irate king sends Maravan for execution for illegally housing Varna once during a stormy night. Maravan is captured by the enemy troops while abducting Amma. Madhu and Varna set out through forest to find Maravan and Amma. Varna eventually realises that she had fallen in love with her husband Maravan after hearing about Ramya. Maravan bravely wipes out the entire army of the enemy and escapes with Amma andon a boat. But Madhu is killed in combat. Amma stops Varna and Maravan from saving him. Then Madhu ends up in another planet where he finally meets his soul mate Ramya look-alike again. He earnestly asks her if she is single. Finally he realises that is his true destiny.
