Having got wearied of their lives, the trio want to reform themselves. And
fired by the noble idea, they migrate to a village little realizing the trouble awaiting them there.
The village is terrorized by a local chieftain. But the trio oppose the chieftain’s dictatorial ways and in the process earn the affection and respect of the villagers.
Even the chieftain’s daughter (Asin) falls in love with hero Vikram.
The star includes among others, Vadivel, Vijayakumar, Muthukalai. An item number by Sindhu Tolani is the icing on the cake!
While music is by Vidyasagar, V T Vijayan takes care of the editing and Balu, the camera.
