Plot

Bubbly little Meenakshi can't wait for her school's cultural festival. It is after all an opportunity for her to grab the coveted position of School Pupil Leader. But her plans come crashing down when she comes to face to face with an unexpected roadblock – puberty. Meenkashi decides to hide the news from Gomathi, her conservative mother, only for the scheme to backfire. While Gomathi wants her daughter to go through the traditional Coming of Age ceremony of Manjal Neeratu Vizha – The Yellow Festival, at the expense of school, Meenakshi is not prepared to accede to her mother's wishes and lose her chance at school glory. In this conflict between age-old traditions and modern pragmatism, who will emerge with the last word?
