Plot

Radha (Roja) is the daughter of the wealthy NRI Viswanathan (Kalyan Kumar) who resides in the United States. Radha brought up in Chennai by her father's friend Manikandan (Janagaraj). Radha is in love with another man Gautham (Bhanu Chander). Her father finds a groom in the US for her and wants his daughter to marry him, but Radha decides to marry her lover Gautham against the wishes of her father. Manikandan supports her will and helps them to get married. When her boyfriend finds out that she will be disinherited, he ditches her at the marriage registrar office.

Shortly after her father decides to retract his disapproval and to spend a fortnight's vacation with his daughter and his new son-in-law in his estate near a tribal community where Sundaram (R. Sundarrajan) is the chief. Because her father is already ill and because this may be his last vacation, Radha and Manikandan want to make it as happy for him as possible. They decide to conceal the fact that her boyfriend dumped her.

Manikandan hires the small-time crook Kannan (Sathyaraj) to play the part of the husband for a fortnight. What transpires next forms the rest of the story.

Release

T. K. Balaji of indolink.com said, "Crazy Mohan's dialogue barely pass muster as does Santhaana Bharathi's direction. Satyaraj looks out of place in this movie. Roja comes out good, but Janakaraj and R.Sunderrajan manage to irritate you out of your senses. The less said about the music, the better".[5] The film flopped at the box office.[6]
