Plot

Tired father Subbaiah (Delhi Ganesh) drives a cycle rickshaw to provide food for the family. Mother Thangamma (Vadivukkarasi) serves as maid and cook in another house-her bit to make ends meet though they never seem to. His girl Rani (Sunitha) sells flowers. His younger kid brother shown delivering newspapers or shining shoes. All their hopes hinge on hero Raja (Vijayakanth). He does not most of the time get as near as an interview. He saved a blind man who was injured by the wayward car of rich man's Chandrasekhar (Jai Ganesh) arrogant daughter Sandhya (Raadhika).

When he does get to an interview, and thanks to his rickshaw-man father Subbaiah is in the know of the password that will fetch him a job at last, at long last, he ends up with the dhaanam of his job to another Raja (Raja), in his opinion more needy candidate. And as if this was not enough, for a month he is giving his people to understand that he has taken the job. And because he has no degree in social work, meaning he is not qualified to do his job, what with our modernday obsession for specialisation, there is no place except a film script where he can be made to work.

His relationship with his lady-love Sandhya, the rich and arrogant shrew, traces a flipflop graph this way. Raja cycle rickshaw is dismembered by the fury of a gang of hired goons. they drive their van over what remains of the cycle. By the time things have come to this pass, the shrew, tired after all this rickety and rumbustious ride turns a devout Tamil (Hindu) wife.
