They become good friends, and they both show a good example of friendship to the others in the college road. Divya is the new girl in town who causes barbers to shave their clients heads, flowers to cry because she is not walking on them, etc. Both fall in love with her, but neither realise that they both love the same woman. When they realise, their friendship is strained. The end of the movie shows whether Divya will fall in love with one of them and whether their friendship will be affected.Mumbai model Abbas was in Bangalore during his holidays, when he bumped into director Kathir who asked him to act in his Tamil film. Initially reluctant due to his little knowledge of the language, he opted out and left for his college in Mumbai. A year later, Abbas received a call from producer K. T. Kunjumon asking him to come over for a screen test as a result of Kathirs insistence. Vineeth was signed on to play another lead role in the film due to his association with Kunjumon, having previously worked in the 1993 Shankardirected film, Gentleman. Tabu was signed on to make her debut in Tamil films and worked on the film alongside Mani Ratnams Iruvar. ........
