Chakravarthi is a film director. Unknown to himself, he has a lookalike. The lookalike, villager Pachaiyappan, is good for nothing and is in love with his cross-cousin. Chakravarthi is married to a devout, pious, orthodox wife who never lets him near her on account of her religious resolutions. This results in him having an affair and ending up getting blackmailed. Chakravarthi's father-in-law, understands the situation of both lookalikes and uses both to solve the problem of the other.
Soundtrack was composed by Vijay Anand, and the lyrics were written by Vaali.[2]
The Indian Express wrote, "It is Prabhu who must be singled out for honours."[3] Jayamanmadhan of Kalki compared the film unfavourably to Visu's earlier films.[4]
