The film stars an ensemble cast of Tarun, Kunal, Hamsavardhan, Dhamu, Sneha and Preetha Vijayakumar with Devan, Nizhalgal Ravi, Vinu Chakravarthy and Malaysia Vasudevan playing supporting roles.

Ganesh comes to Chennai with the hope of meeting his maternal uncle Rajarathinam following his mother Parvathi's sudden death.

He sells Parvathi's chain which he was planning to give to Bomma and sets up a small roadside food business near Marina Beach.

All four stay in a small home and the house owner Ravi Chandhiran advises them to go for some job instead of following their dreams so that they can earn some money and improve their living condition.

All four friends jointly set up a small hotel where Ganesh cooks while the others serve and do other works in their free time.

Ganesh tries hard by requesting a sabha manager to provide an opportunity for Vijay and Raja to perform.

Ganesh sells his hotel and pays the deposit following which the manager agrees and Vijay and Raja perform on the stage.

Meanwhile, Rajarathinam plans her wedding with their family friend Ashok Kumar for which Priya agrees though not interested.

A function is organized in the city center of Chennai for felicitating Raja, Selvam and Vijay's talents.

Ravi Chandhiran gets depressed seeing this and scolds Ganesh that this is how people behave when they have money and get fame.

But in an eventual twist, Raja, Selvam and Vijay inform on stage that they had praised their parents just for a formality and they helped them in no way during their struggling days.

The film marked the directorial debut of K. Shahjahan who earlier worked as assistant director to Vikraman.

[5] Malini Mannath from Chennai Online opined that "It is a real good film, neatly scripted, with the scenes flowing smoothly".

[6] A critic from Sify wrote that "On the whole the film lacks soul and style associated with the Vikraman school of film-making".
