Sathya (Hamsavardhan) is a drama director in his village who lives with his father Ramaiah (Malaysia Vasudevan), a respected Koothu artist, and his mother (Sabitha Anand). The village belle Thulasi (Keerthi Chawla), Sathya's relative, is in love with him since her childhood. Sathya comes to Chennai with hopes of becoming a cinema director one day. In Chennai, he lost his luggage and contact addresses. He is now left penniless and has nowhere to go. Sofia (Sunitha Varma), a small mechanic shop owner, gives him food to eat and accommodates him in her mechanic shop. In turn, Sathya helps her repair motorcycles besides looking for a film producer. Afterwards, Sofia falls in love with Sathya. At last, impressed by Sathya's story, a film producer accepts to producer his film. The same day, Sathya saves David (Karate Raja) from being killed by local rowdies. The gang leader Antony (Kadhal Dhandapani) commends Sathya for saving his brother from the rival gang rowdies and offers him to join his gang. Sathya declines Antony's proposal and speaks ill of his activity. Thereafter, Sathya's parents and Thulasi arrive in Chennai; they are accommodated by Sofia in her house. In the meantime, Antony and the rival gang leader Annapoorani (Emey) make peace and want to kill Sathya. What transpires next forms the rest of the story.

Actor Hamsavardhan, who shaved the head for the film, said, "If the script demands me to do some sacrifice, I am ready for it. At the end of the day, one would only want the end product to come out well".[4]

The film score and the soundtrack were composed by Srikanth Deva. The soundtrack, released in 2007, features 6 tracks with lyrics written by Na. Muthukumar, Piraisoodan, Devakumar, Muthumagan and Gana Bala.[5] Gana Bala, credited as Anathai Bala made his debut as singer and lyricist with this film in the song "Pathinoru Aattam" and also appeared in the song.[6]

The film critic Malini Mannath wrote, "A lackluster script and slipshod narration reveal the amateurishness of a debutant director who seems not quite able to translate his ideas on to the screen", and that, "The saving grace of the film is Hamsavardhan (son of yesteryear hero Ravichandran), who bravely strides on through all the inadequacies of the script and his lacklustre role".[7]
