#)Vidyasagar did great work as music was very pleasant and touching.All the songs were great and  especiall the song 'Yar Yar Sivam" was mind blowing.

#)He often gets into trouble due to this. Kamal is also a painter, and a very talented one at that. He is fighting mainly against the town's biggest business tycoon, Nassar , whom he satirically imitates during many of his shows.
#)However, an interesting turn of events sees Kamal and Nasar's own daughter Kiran  fall in love with each other. Realizing Nasar's power would be too much to bear if they want to get together, Kamal and Kiran decide to elope, but while Kamal is on a bus on his way to meet Kiran, the bus meets with a horrible accident at a hillside which leaves Kamal badly injured, which subsequently leads him to be paralyzed.

#)The train comes to a halt because a train which travelled on the track before had an accident and it has to be cleared up first. There, Madhavan witnesses a slew of dead bodies and suffering people, causing him to suffer emotionally.

#)Kamal, who doesn't believe in God externally, tells Madhavan, that Madhavan himself is God, that his tears after the boy dies is the nature of God itself.

#)Madhavan also comes to terms with using his full name Anbarasu (derived from the full Tamil name Anbarasan - literally 'King Of Love'), a name he previously despised under the reason that he doesn't like 'anbu' (love).

#)Both of them go their separate ways in Chennai, but Aras realizes that Nalla's union cheque is with him and returns to the address Kamal had given him.

#)n an emotional moment, Madhavan recounts the story of how his brother died from a freak accident when he was young (a story he already told to Kamal before).

#)He says that Kamal is his new-found brother and should stay with him as long as life permits.

#)A clearly emotional Kamal immediately accepts the invitation.

#)However, at the marriage, Kamal realizes that the girlMadhavan is about to marry is Kiran.

#)He takes this opportunity to appear in front of Nassar and threaten that he will stay on and make Kiran realize what a cheat her father is unless Nassar  signs all related documents for pay increment and bonuses for his company's labourers. Sacrificing himself for the workers, Kamal leaves after Nassar signs, leaving behind a letter for his 'brother' that he has missions to complete in this world, and that he'd rather travel as a free bird than to be caged and tied at one particular place.

#)He thanks Aras for the love shown and meanwhile Nassar orders his assistant Santhana Bharathi to kill Kamal.

#)As Kamal walks away, the assistant approaches and Kamal, telling that he cant fight like he used to do, is ready to accept death.

#)However, the assistant drops his weapon, weeps, and apologizes to Kamal.

#)He tells kamal that because he did all the dirty work for his boss, the God has punished him by taking away his beloved daughter from him.

#)He tells Kamal that he has done enough sins, and doesn't want to bear any more sins on behalf of his boss. He asks Nalla to leave and that God will protect Kamal.

#)Kamal refutes, saying that the assistant himself is God. He says that there is no greater God than to be able to apologize and change an original intent of killing.

The film ends with Kamal walking away with his dog, Sangu.
