Prasanna is an orphan who is interested in writing poems through a sobriquet . His poems are published in local magazines . He ,very soon realises that some one else shares his thoughts and sensibilities . She is his fan and reads his poems regularly and sends fan mail . They start interacting through letters .
Knowing her details , he goes to Kutralam to search for her . He goes to live with his friend there . The family is headed by Vijay kumar . The friend has 4 sisters. The heroine Udaya is one of the sisters and has gone on all India trip with her friends .
Very soon Prasanna becomes close to this family as he misses having one himself .
They all make him feel at home involving him in day to day activities as a family member . Sadly before Udaya returns back home , her brother dies in a freak accident . He feels guilty as he was driving the scooter . None of the family members hold him responsible and in fact grow closer to him . When Udaya comes back he holds him responsible for her brother's untimely death . She maintains her distance from him . The family affectionately forces him . He stays back in that house to fulfill his friend's responsibilities as their son and brother .
He also manages to get two sisters married to their cousins as per their wish .
One day when Udaya sings her songs in a school program , both realize that they were the ones exchanging letters as both are fans of each others' writings .
From here starts some uneasy relations , confusions and misunderstandings. The family considers him as their brother . He is called to fulfill the maternal uncle's rituals when one sister gives birth to a son .
When Vijay kumar dies , the family forces him to do his funeral rights as his son .
Both of them do not tell their feelings to the family . She keeps stalling marriage much to the her family's puzzlement .
Finally she decides to tell her story to her family much against his wishes . But Prasanna refuses to marry her saying I have more love from your family as a son and a brother . I have become your family member easily .
He leaves her and returns back home .She quietly accepts her fate . She is left with his memories.
Shot in lush locales of Sengottai and Tankasi , its a very quite simple movie with a few characters . No loud songs are included. The side comedy track of Vadivelu is unnecessary and brash . Prasanna reminds us of family heroes like Mohan or Karthik . The heroine Udaya looks very simple and homely . The local dialect is used in a lot of places and is a delight to our ears . Over all a fine family movie .
