Pasupathy contacts a Naxalite group which promises to pay him the required money if he surrenders to the police instead of the wanted Naxalite. Pasupathy agrees and surrenders, but the money does not reach him as the Naxalite (Ilavarasu) who was supposed to pay the money had other problems. The Naxalite group decides to save Pasupathy by surrendering themselves and also give the money needed for the operation, but they are cheated by the assistant commissioner, who does not hand over the money to Pasupathy.

However, doctors advise that his mother's health condition worsened and surgery might not save her. Pasupathy insists the doctors to perform the surgery. The surgery is performed but seems unsuccessful as his mother becomes unconscious after surgery. Pasupathy is heartbroken and cries at her feet in the hospital.

Critical reception[edit]

Sify wrote, "Except for Vivek’s comedy there is nothing worthwhile in the film. The second half of the story goes haywire, the film drags and the large doses of old fashioned mother sentiments in the climax leave you exhausted".[3]
