<p>Ravishankar ( ) is a leading music director in the Tamil film industry. After his wife Sakunthala’s ( ) death, he stopped composing music and prefers to stay away from society. One day, he gets a letter from his music teacher Krishnamurthy Sastrigal (Ra. Sankaran), who stays in Ooty. Ravi leaves to Ooty to meet his guru. Krishnamurthy advises Ravi to come out of sorrow and start concentrating on music again. He also requests him to stay in Ooty for a few days so that it will help him overcome the pain. Ravi agrees and stays in Vishnu’s (Ravvendar) guest house who happens to be Krishnamurthy’s friend. Chithra (Nadiya) is the only sister of Vishnu. Ravi visits Vishnu’s house and plays a veena there. Chithra suddenly gets angry and shouts at Ravi not to play that. Later she feels bad for her rude behavior and apologizes to Ravi. Slowly Ravi and Chithra become good friends. There comes a flashback for Chithra. Vijay (Suresh) is her relative and they both were in love. But one day suddenly, Vijay dies in an accident. Chithra is shocked by the accident and she cannot recover from it. Following that, Chithra prefers to stay without marrying anyone. Similarly, Ravi tells his flashback where his wife died when the gas cylinder suddenly exploded at his home. Friendship transforms into love between Ravi and Chithra. But Ravi understands that it was him, who hit Vijay in an accident a few years back, following which he died. This makes him feel guilty and he refuses the marriage with Chithra. Ravi also confesses the truth to Chithra. Ravi’s wife was badly hurt following cylinder explosion. Ravi was driving his car fast as he needs to admit her soon to the hospital. On the way, he hit Vijay who was riding a bike. Vijay was also badly hurt and requests help. Ravi at that moment tries to save only his wife and he leaves Vijay without helping. Vijay dies there. Ravi’s wife also passes away. Now Ravi says to Chithra that though it was an accident, he feels guilty of killing a human and that’s why he refuses marriage with Chithra. Though Chithra gets angry first, later she understands Ravi’s position and the two get married. The film was originally titled . Most of the filming was done at . The song “Kanna Unnai” was shot at . The soundtrack was composed by . (a duo) of wrote the story gets stuck in a loop. Here and there it loses balance. If Dinesh Babu had failed to give pleasantness in Kodaikanal and Ilaiyaraaja had failed to give sweetness to the auditory nerves, the front half would have been sitting on a thorn. It is a pity that even they could not save the second half. Jayamanmadhan called Sivakumar’s flashback as generous but felt the scenes involving Suresh and Nadhiya were superficially treated.</p>
