Plot
Rajaram (Pandiarajan) and his friend Dhanapal (Chinni Jayanth) are college students and they live together. Rajaram's father (Mohan Gandhiraman) decides to arrange the wedding between Rajaram and his relative Sarasu (Divyasri), who is very outspoken. Rajaram is at first reluctant about this marriage, but he accepts because of his father's insistence. Sarasu really loves Rajaram. In the meantime, Rajaram falls in love with the college girl Shanthi (Sindhuja). When Rajaram proposes his love for Shanthi, she rejects it. Shanthi, even so, advises him to convince her parents. What transpires later forms the crux of the story.
