Plot
The film begins with the voice of director Sasikumar to introduce four mischievous friends - Pandi, Mangaa, Kona, and Maari - in his typical Madurai lingo. The friends think they rule the 'Kadavur' village. They are united and very close, and they live for each other. They always think outside the box. They turn out to be vagabonds and go to the extent of even killing the village president's son. After a few similar delinquent experiences, they are forced to leave the village and end up coming to Chennai. How the friends meet the heroine, and what happens in Chennai with the friends and the girl forms the rest of the story.

Reception
Sify wrote "The film does not have a coherent script, logic and lacks focus. It is another 'Made in Madurai' bloodbath that's etched from various earlier movies and a bit from Fernando Meirelles's classic 'City of God'". Times of India wrote "Periyasamy, who had showed some promise in his earlier outing Oru Kalluriyin Kathai, is clearly in the grip of the good-at-heart village boys ending up in a mess-street plot. Nothing original, nothing closely resembling out-of- the-box thinking, but a faithful adherence to the way Madurai-belt films pan out."
