Aiyampettai Arivudainambi Kaliyaperumal Chandran A.A.K. Chandran for short Rajinikanth is a playful young man. Upon completion of his degree, his fathers friend and business partner Poornam Viswanathan advises him to attend an interview for a job at his friend Sri Ramachandramurthys Thengai Srinivasan company. The doctor advises Chandran to act in a manner most appreciated by Sri Ramachandramurthy namely, wearing a Nehru kurta, always telling his full name, giving importance to his moustache, showing a lack of interest in sports and drama, showing respect for his fathers words i.e., by repeating the phrase My father always told me often and detesting the concept of recommendations.During the job interview, Chandran follows his uncles advice perfectly and gets the job along with a beaming smile from his new boss. However, Chandran eventually gets caught when Sri Ramachandramurthy watches him at a football match, which he attends with his friends. He took leave on that day by telling his boss that his mother who died many years ago was in a serious medical condition. To escape from the ire of his boss and being fired, he makes his boss believe that it was his fake twin brother Indran without a moustache who was at the match and not himself. This idea is inspired by a dual role played by his actor friend Nagesh in a fictional film where he is in two roles one with a moustache and one without. Sri Ramachandramurthy although not convinced but feeling guilty due to suspecting his top employee wants to see Chandrans brother Indran as well as his mother and wants Indran to teach music to his daughter Sarojini Madhavi. ........
