Seetharam (Arjun) is a well-respected businessman who lives with his PA Muthuswamy (Anu Mohan) in Chennai. Although being a short-tempered and tense person, Seetharam is good at heart and helps people in need. He soon meets and falls in love with Kalyani (Sonali Bendre). After a couple of meetings she sees his good nature and falls in love with him.

But, Seetharam faces problems in the form of another loving couple, Akash (Suchindra) and Akhila (Ruchita) due to an argument between Akhila and Akash and Akhila acts as Seetharam's fiancé so that she can get rid of Akash just before he proposes to Kalyani. Kalyani, being an innocent, believes her words and goes away from Seetharam. Hence, Seetharam becomes the main antagonist of the film to make the lives of Akash and Akhila miserable. An enraged and betrayed Seetharam therefore seeks revenge against Akash and Akhila by separating them. But, he fails in all of his attempts. He also attempts to stop the love marriage between Akash and Akhila, which is arranged by Madana Gopal (Manivannan), Akash's father.

But, when Akash and Akhila meet and ask apologies to him, but Seetharam does not forgive them and sends goons to kill them. To his horror and sad shock, Seetharam with surprise he meets Kalyani at the mall and knowing that she gets married with a blind man Rajasheker (Nizhalgal Ravi). She tells him that after that incident happened in your office I was enter into dark world. After seeing ad of my husband torches light into my life. She tells that I took your advice into my life, even though my husband is blind but I'm satisfied. I'm very happy even though I sacrificed something.she aks about Seetharam's marriage but knowning still he loves me she suddenly ask how about your family. Then kalyani's husband Rajasheker introduced with Seetharam that god gives me settled life with my wife as she is my two eyes. Seetharam was quite and Rajasheker tells him I cannot see you but I can hear your voice. With struggle he says "Best of Luck", and both of them invites Seetharam to theirs home. Seetharam also informs this matter to Akash and Akhila, and saves them from the henchmen who have not seen Seetharam and don't know that he was the one who hired them to murder. Seetharam bids goodbye to both of them and ask them to see a good life partener for him. Hence, the movie ends with the moral that "Too much of anything is good for nothing."

Anbalaya Films offered debutant Prabhu Solomon an opportunity to direct a film for their production house, after he had helped them complete the post-production works for Murai Mappillai (1995) when director Sundar C walked out. Prabhu Solomon chose to feature Raghuvaran and Bhanupriya in the leading roles, though the producers Anabalaya Films were reluctant to cast a character artiste in the lead role. Prabhu revealed he met Arjun in Thenkasi during the making of Mudhalvan (1999), at the insistence of his producer and actively tried to make a poor impression. Arjun, nonetheless, was keen and worked on the film.[2]

Soundtrack was composed by Deva and lyrics written by Vaali, Kalaikumar, Thamarai and Mayil.[3]

New Straits Times felt that film would have done by "someone more experienced".[4]
