Bayam Ariyaan is a 2010 Indian Tamil-language action drama film directed by Prathesh.
The film stars Mahesh Raja and Udhayathara, with Kishore, Manikandan, Saranya Ponvannan, Ponnambalam, Devi Kiruba, Aswathy, Kadhal Sukumar, and Kottachi playing supporting roles.
Police Inspector Mithran (Kishore) makes money on the side by hiring jobless youngsters in the area. The jobless Vinoth (Mahesh Raja), also known as Koni, along with his friends, indulges in criminal activities like extortion and rowdyism to fill the pocket of the corrupt cop Mithran.
Despite his penchant for money, Mithran has a soft side: he cherishes his wife Ramya (Devi Kiruba) more than anything. Conversely, Vinoth enjoys drinking and spending time in brothels. He is cruel even to his mother Saraswathi (Saranya Ponvannan), whom he beats up, ill-treats, cheats, and robs.
Vinoth then falls under the spell of the college student Nivedha (Udhayathara). He woos her in an unusual fashion, and surprisingly, Nivedha slowly falls for him too. The youngster Pazham (Manikandan) is also part of Mithran's team.
The film was released on 23 April 2010.
