She stays in her friend's house where she meets Sivaramakrishnan who is staying in his colleague's house. She mistakes him thinking he has ruined her marriage and tries to take revenge but later her friend who returns back to her house, tells that she did it purposefully because that doctor cheated her and doesn't want Gayathri also to be cheated by him. Gayathri realises her mistake and asks sorry and also in the 'Pattimandram' she talks in such a way that she marries Sivaramakrishnan then and there and goes to his house. It is revealed that sivaramakrishnan has a first wife named Sumathi who has divorced him and they have a son. In order to trouble him again and spoil his married life she starts to live in a house in front of his house. She quarrels with gayathri telling that Sivaramakrishnan is her husband. Gayathri loses peace of mind but Sivaramakrishnan assures her that he loves only Gayathri and tells her the flashback in which Sumathi who is his father's sister's daughter is being compelled and married to him and after marriage he and his parents understand that she is a very arrogant and selfish woman who doesn't give any importance to their feelings. Even though she becomes pregnant she decides to get a divorce from him because of a fight with Sivaramakrishnan and his parents. After many quarrels between Sumathi and Gayathri, Sumathi realises her mistake and goes to Sivaramakrishnan and apologises for her mistake and tells that she will leave him and Gayathri to live peacefully by going back to her house. Meanwhile her son gets fits and Gayathri carries him to a hospital where the doctor is the one she previously had misunderstanding with.

Reception[edit | edit source]

Krishna Chidambaram of Kalki praised the humour; however felt the film was absurd, cited songs as speed breakers and climax as so-so and called the film as just pass.[2] Malini Mannath of Chennai Online said the film "doesn’t disappoint, in the sense that it moves in the expected, predictable way one would expect a Prabhu-film to".[3] Sify wrote, "It is the same old wine in a new bottle. Such genre of films will work only in Tamil where the B and C audience lap up such subjects".[4] The relative success of the film prompted the producers to sign Prabhu to work on a film titled Sabash Sagalai soon after release. Sherin was cast opposite Prabhu, though the film was later stalled.[5]
