Balu (Vijayakumar) and Padma (Manjula Vijayakumar) are a happily married couple and they have a teenage daughter Manju (Zeenat). One day, Manju receives a love letter from an unknown person. Balu hates love and wants to punish the letter sender. Her parents take the help of their neighbour Shiva (Sivakumar) to find the anonymous lover. Shiva is married to Sukanya (Jeeva) and they have a little boy (Master Vijay). What transpires later forms the crux of the story.
The soundtrack was composed by Manoj Saran, with lyrics written by Vairamuthu, Muthulingam and Vijayachandran.[2]

But of course it is his first work and it shows".[4]
