Vijay (Vijay), a college student, comes back after finishing his studies. He meets the village headman's daughter Meena (Yuvarani), and both of them fall in love with each other. Meena's brother Ponnambalam (Ponnambalam) opposes their marriage. Meanwhile, Vijay's elder brother Sendhoorapandi (Vijayakanth) returns from jail. The story carries a flashback of Sendhoorapandi, where Marikozhundhu (Gouthami) was in love with him while he was jailed. Whether Vijay and Meena win in their love forms the rest of the story.

Production

After his debut film Naalaiya Theerpu (1992) became a commercial failure at the box-office, Chandrasekhar felt "it would be best for his son to pair up with an established hero for his next film" and he decided to cast Vijayakanth alongside his son Vijay to which he agreed to do for free.[1]

Reception

The Indian Express wrote it "turns out to be fairly engaging film".[5] New Straits Times wrote "It is amazing Chandrasegaran went into production without a proper story. Rajarajan's cinematography is the saving grace in this movie which seems to have nothing new to say".[6]
