As a boy, Sakthi wanted to be a superhero like Shaktimaan; as an adult, he runs a racket selling fake degree certificates. His path changes when a brilliant young girl he knows has her invention stolen and her life destroyed by a system that treats education as a business. Sathyamoorthy, a former teacher who secretly nurtures such young inventors, shows Sakthi what is at stake, and Sakthi puts on a mask to fight Mahadev, the powerful businessman who crushes original talent. Hero is a Tamil superhero action film about rote learning and the commercialisation of education. It was Hindi actor Abhay Deol's Tamil debut as the villain and Kalyani Priyadarshan's first Tamil film, with Arjun as the mentor.
