Unable to bear the separation, Anand goes into depression. His friends take him to Chennai with the hope that he will start life afresh. There, life throws a googly at him when he sees Saradha, Amrita's lookalike. After the initial hiccups, Anand and Saradha fall in love with each other and decide to get married.

Reception[]

The Hindu wrote "SIVASAKTHI MOVIE Makers’, “Kanavae Kalayathae” is replete with emotional twists handled with taste and refinement by debutant director V. Gouthaman. The lead pair, Murali and Simran lend enough depth in their portrayals. The good pace the director works out in the first half through his screenplay".^[3]
