Eshwar (Prashanth) is the son of (R. Sundarrajan) and (Vadivukkarasi). He has a naturally helpful personality and will come to the rescue of anyone who is in difficulties. Eshwar's friend faces a problem marrying his fiancée. Eshwar helps his friend, which leads to a skirmish brawl, and Eshwar also falls in love with his friend's sister Kavitha (Sanghavi). When Eshwar's love was accepted by both parents, they approach an astrologer (J. V. Somayajulu), who predicts Eshwar to be isolated for some time to avoid disaster in his life. Eshwar arrives with his friend Mani (Goundamani) to their estate in Coonoor - Ooty, where numerous incidents take place. At one point of time, Sinthamani (Urvashi), a mentally retarded, forcibly takes asylum in Eshwar's estate. A local thug Kabali (Ponnambalam) tries to molest Sinthamani, and Eshwar chases Kabali away. Later, Kabali was found dead. Suriya (Devan), a police inspector, is deputed for investigating this case. Suriya is a relative of Kavitha, and they were supposed to marry. The investigation reveals evidence, and Eshwar is blamed for Kabali's murder. What happens next is to be watched.

The film score and the soundtrack were composed by film composer Deva. The soundtrack, released in 1997, features 5 tracks.[3] All the songs were Super hits.

New Straits Times called the film "above average, the kind you won't be tired of (except maybe during some of the songs)".[4]
