Sera meets Kavitha (<a href="/wiki/Bindu_Madhavi" title="Bindu Madhavi">Bindu Madhavi</a>) when he and his crew retrieve her sister's body from a gully after her sister had committed suicide with her boyfriend. Kavitha falls in love with Sera. A parallel plot is of Ayya (<a href="/wiki/Jayaprakash" class="mw-redirect" title="Jayaprakash">Jayaprakash</a>), who trades in stolen tea, with corrupt officials turning a blind eye to his activities. Ayya's gang kills four police officers during a raid and throws the dead bodies from the suicide point. Ayya, who knows Shanmugam, threatens him not to retrieve the bodies of the police officers. Fearing for their lives, Shanmugam tries to convince Sera not to retrieve the bodies. Brushing aside Shanmugam's fears, Sera's crew retrieves the bodies. After retrieving the bodies, Sera informs the police of the murder by Ayya, resulting in Ayya's arrest. Ayya comes out on bail, and his men kill Shanmugam, Nandu, and Sera's mute friend. Sera kills Ayya's henchmen. Kavitha consoles Sera, and they both decide to run away from Kodaikanal to lead a peaceful life. They both board a jeep, and on the way, Ayya arrives with his men, and they start attacking Sera. Sera kills most of them and also Ayya. He rushes back to the jeep but is shocked to see Kavitha dead. Sera understands that Kavitha was accidentally stabbed to death during the fight. Sera cries loud, jumps from the mountain, and kills himself along with Kavitha's dead body. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Cast">Cast</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Kazhugu_(2012_film)&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Cast"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1184024115">.mw-parser-output .div-col{margin-top:0.3em;column-width:30em}.mw-parser-output .div-col-small{font-size:90%}.mw-parser-output .div-col-rules{column-rule:1px solid #aaa}.mw-parser-output .div-col dl,.mw-parser-output .div-col ol,.mw-parser-output .div-col ul{margin-top:0}.mw-parser-output .div-col li,.mw-parser-output .div-col dd{page-break-inside:avoid;break-inside:avoid-column}</style><div class="div-col" style="column-width: 25em;min-width: min(25em, 100%);"> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Krishna_Sekhar" class="mw-redirect" title="Krishna Sekhar">Krishna</a> as Sera</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Bindu_Madhavi" title="Bindu Madhavi">Bindu Madhavi</a> as Kavitha</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Karunas" title="Karunas">Karunas</a> as Nandu</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Thambi_Ramaiah" title="Thambi Ramaiah">Thambi Ramaiah</a> as Shanmugam (Chittappa @ Chithu)</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Jayaprakash_(actor)" title="Jayaprakash (actor)">Jayaprakash</a> as Ayya</li> <li>Praveen G.
