Plot

The police Commissioner Arumugam (V.S. Raghavan) retires after many years of hard work. He has two sons Rajeev (Rajeev) and Ravi (Eashwar). Rajeev is married to Parimalam (Sadhana) and they have a teenage daughter. Ravi is an MBA graduate and he doesn't want to get married. Ravi's family finally find a bride for Ravi, and Rajeswari (Monica) becomes his fiancée but they have not seen each other. Later, Ravi finds a job in Germany and he left India. During the engagement ceremony, a fight breaks out between the two families and the engagement is eventually cancelled. To forget this incident, Rajeswari's grandfather brings Rajeswari to Germany. In Germany, Ravi and Rajeswari fall in love with each other. What transpires next forms the rest of the story.

Production

The film was shot in France, with lead actor Eashwar, who is a non-resident Indian, facilitating the shoot.[4][5] Eashwar's father had been an actor in Tamil films and he was able to discuss the script with producers Gurumurthi and director R. N. Murugesan during their visit to Paris. After the completion of the shoot, Eashwar moved to Chennai to try and pursue a career in films, but was largely unsuccessful.[6][7]
