Equally promptly, this turns into love with no rhyme or reason. It's never quite revealed just what Idhaya does for a living he roams around the city with his friends (Srinath and Co), meets a pretty Anjali (Poorna) as he asks her for a lift to the hospital, and ends up walking into a movie theatre instead, thus earning her undying hatred. Bakkiyanathan's parents are Ravichandran and K R Vijaya, and according to the time-tested custom of grandparents in Tamil cinema, have nothing to do but smile, wear expensive clothes and apparently sit on rocking horses at their familial home. The team apparently planned to visit foreign locales for shooting a couple of songsm, but the director decided to complete the shooting in Tamil Nadu itself.The setting is standard, a village milieu which has the usual vazhukkumaram, local festivities and a hero who practically vaults over the entire village before landing on the slippery log with ease. This is how you're introduced to him and his pretty, ideal and cinematic family. He's Idhayakkani (Adhi), his father is Bakkiyanathan (Prabhu) with an obsession for MGR and his films (his children are named after those), wife Kalaiyarasi, and daughter Rani Samyuktha. Producers of the film hailed Suseenthiran for completing the shooting of the film within 74 days while he initially promised to finish the shooting within 80 days. He however said that the film may have some shades of things that have happened in reality.
