Sooryan tells the story of Sooryanarayanan (Jayaram), who is a very popular and accomplished singer. His family comprises his mother (Kalaranjini) and his widowed sister Raji (Nandini) and her two kids. There is also his eldest sister (Zeenath), who is married to a businessman named Sundaran (Sreehari). One day, while Sooryanarayanan is on a hospital visit with his niece, he sees someone who sends the shivers down his spine. That someone is Simon Thekkilakaadan (Vijayaraghavan), who is crippled and in a wheelchair, and presents a rather pitiful sight.
