On his wedding day, Shiva (Vijay) discovers that his cousin and bride, Aruna, has run away because she does not want to marry a cook. But he takes it lightly and moves to Chennai with the girl's brother (Shyam Ganesh) to look for a job. One night, he saves Sandya from some goons. In gratitude, she kisses him. Shiva starts to fall in love with Sandya. After several occasions where they bumped into each other, Shiva harbours hope that she too reciprocates his affections.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This is a remake of the Telugu film 'Bobby' (2002), because the early 2000s simply could not get enough of runaway bride narratives.
Shaheen Khan's brief Tamil film career peaked here — she vanished after this, becoming one of many heroines the industry chewed up and forgot.
