As adults, Selva works as a call taxi driver and Mangai is a law college student.

Velusaamy asks Selva to accompany him to a wholesale plantain market to settle accounts with Paramasivan.

Mangai intelligently accomplishes the task, winning a place in the Koyembedu market and befriending Reddy's son Kalyan.

Mangai and Selva think that he ran away with the jewels, but Bose returns bringing a truck of golden fruits (plantain variety) procured from Bangalore.

Bose also insults Preetha that she flirted with his son and made him give a bank guarantee for two crores.

His twin brother Natrayan warns him to stay away from Bose's family as killing him is not a solution; rather, his future will get spoiled.

The film ends with Bose and Chandra celebrating their 60th anniversary in their hometown with the reconciled Selva, Mangai, and the entire family.

Mani Ratnam finalised plans to produce a film for Madras Talkies by his assistant director Dhana Sekaran in late 2018.

He had written a story based on the lives of real characters from Theni, which his assistant Dhana had recollected from his years growing up in the hill town.

[2] Mani Ratnam chose to eventually prioritise other directorial ventures, but agreed to produce the script with Dhana as director, owing to his familiarity with the characters.

[2] The first crew member to be publicly announced was music composer Govind Vasantha, who accepted to work on the film following negotiations in early November 2018.

[5][6] Vikram Prabhu replaced Prakash Kumar during March 2019, while Madonna Sebastian was subsequently cast opposite him.

[7][8] Prior to the start of the shoot, actors Nandha Durairaj, Shanthanu Bhagyaraj and Amitash Pradhan were also added to the cast.

[10][11] Preetha Jayaraman was signed as the film's cinematographer, while Eka Lakhani joined as the costume designer.

Despite finishing work on two songs, Govind Vasantha opted out of the film owing to a production delay and was replaced by playback singer Sid Sriram, who made his debut as a music composer through the project.

Scenes and a montage song titled "Business" featuring Vikram Prabhu was filmed near Jerusalem College of Engineering, Chennai.

However, despite finishing work on two songs, Govind Vasantha opted out of the film owing to a production delay and was replaced by playback singer Sid Sriram, who made his debut as a music composer through the project.
