Muthurasu (Karthik) and Periyasamy (Nizhalgal Ravi) are brothers, and live with their father (Vinu Chakravarthy) and their grandmother (Kanthimathi). Meenakshi (Sasikala), Muthurasu's cousin, will marry another man (Anandaraj) but she must marry Muthurasu or Periyasamy as per the customs. The brothers then decide to kidnap Meenakshi. In the process, Periyasamy dies.
The two villages then clash and arrange a panchayat to solve the problem. During the panchayat, Meenakshi says that she will stay in her uncle's house because Meenakshi hates the groom. Muthurasu's father decides to arrange the marriage between Muthurasu and Meenakshi but Muthurasu cannot forget his lover Dhanam (Monisha) who died a few years ago. What transpires later forms the crux of the story.
The film score and the soundtrack were composed by Ilaiyaraaja. The soundtrack, released in 1992, features five tracks with lyrics written by Vaali, Gangai Amaran, Piraisoodan and Ponnadiyan.[4]
