The story of Lal Salaam revolves around Thirunavukarasu, known as Thiru, and Shamsuddin who are skilled cricket players from Murarbad. Despite belonging to different religions, they share a friendly rivalry. Their fathers, Manickam and Mohideen Bhai, have a strong bond. As elections approach, Raj, a politician’s son, takes advantage of their rivalry. He manipulates the situation, leading to a heated match where Thiru injures Shamsuddin. This incident sparks communal tensions. Raj escalates the conflict by targeting lower-caste families and disrupting the Thiruvizha.

Banished from his village, Thiru seeks refuge in nearby towns. He plays cricket to raise funds for the temple cart. In search of more money, he heads to Bombay. There, he unknowingly rescues Shamsuddin during another religious riot, bringing an end to their feud. Meanwhile, Mohideen finances the Thayr, but Raj retaliates by destroying it. Raj’s pregnant wife, Ammani, discovers his misdeeds. She compels him to surrender. In the end, Hindus and Muslims in Murarbad reconcile. They restore peace and celebrate Thiruvizha together.
