Muthumanikkam and his brother-in-law Rasappan (Anandaraj) are against love marriages.

Apart from wielding the megaphone, Vasu pens the story, screenplay and dialogues. The film is produced by K.Balu for Aishwaria Combines. The banner had earlier made 'Pandithurai', 'Uthamarasu', 'Paramparai' and of course the highly successful 'Chinna Thambi'. Shooting has been planned at exotic locations in Ooty, Mysore and Goa. Prabhu plays the dual role of father and son in the film. Two heroines are paired with him, both debutantes. One is Mani Chandhana and the other, Vyjayanthi.

Reception

Cinema Today wrote "The story selected by P.Vasu is a well worn-out one. Hence monotony. The songs introduced as an element of difference have turned him upside down. prabhu and Vadivelu have emerged as his saviors."[7] Lollu Express called it "Irritating and old story".[8]
