Summary: The punk villain Ramesh (Karan) is the leading
thug in Shaktivel College where student
violence has caused chaos. Order is restored by
the new professor, Selvan (Kamalahasan). The
best moments in the film are the spontaneouslooking
scenes of intimacy between Selvan and
his colleague Vasanthi (Gauthami), and the
musical contest when the professor and his
students, whose musical instruments have been
destroyed by the villain, perform a full number
entirely with natural sound effects. The script
credits were withheld, apparently after
Kamalahasan’s extensive informal
contributions had transformed the story.
Veteran Tamil actor Nagesh makes a
remarkable cameo appearance as the father of
Nirmala (Brinda), a college student killed by
Ramesh.
