I Saw an Angel) is a 2005 Indian Tamil-language romantic drama film written and directed by Boopathy Pandian in his directorial debut.
She thinks of her future if she chooses the impoverished Babu, where she visualises herself giving birth to a child in a government hospital, her husband unable to raise required money for her medical expenses, and overall a very difficult life; in contrast to a life where she is pampered by everyone, her every need taken care of almost instantly if she chooses to marry Bala.
While Babu is on a religious trip to Sabarimala, Uma decides to marry Bala so that she can continue to lead a comfortable life.
In a unique way, Babu files a case against Uma for not holding the promise made to him of sharing a life together for a good 50 years.
When Uma offers a rose to Babu, he refuses to accept her, saying that the case was filed not to win her back, but to teach a lesson to her and every girl with an attitude identical.
While leaving the court complex, much to the surprise of the visibly embarrassed Uma, he tells his last word to her in his known English, "Goodbye".
