Spoilers ahead
Sachein [Vijay] is a carefree, happy-go-lucky guy who joins a college in Ooty and falls for Shalini at first sight. Shalini [Genelia D’Souza] is one of the college’s most popular and beautiful students, yet she carries a sharp temper and a sense of superiority that comes from an upper-middle-class upbringing. Sachein quickly learns from Arnold alias Ayyasamy [Vadivelu], a student who has lingered in the campus for years and believes that respect for professors should guide student life, that many boys are trying to impress Shalini. This knowledge nudges him to take a different route: he starts poking fun at Shalini in front of her friends, a habit that irks her and proves that he’s willing to push a little to get her attention.
