Evocative and provocative, this woman-centric social drama revolves around an independently minded woman, Manju (Sripriya), who works in advertising for a male chauvinist boss (Rajnikant). Weary of men, she keeps her distance from her sensitive boyfriend Arun (Kamalahasan), who makes vox-pop documentaries.
After patiently waiting for any interminably long period, Arun eventually accepts an arranged marriage, only for Manju to finally declare her love for him. Is it too late for Manju? Will Arun break his engagement and agree to marry Manju, or will Manju be left alone to lead a lonely existence?
