Plot[]

Suryaprakash (S. J. Suryah) is a businessman who wants to become richer than Bill Gates. In the process, he lose his family and social life. He tells scientist Stephen Raj (Nassar) to clone him so that he can keep concentrating on his business affairs whilst the clone replaces him at home. Savithri (Tamannaah), a college girl doing a research project on Suryaprakash, falls in love with him. Suryaprakash is not interested in Savithri, but marries her because she's a good cook.

Critical reception[]

Indiaglitz wrote: "Sakthi Chidambaram has used the concept of cloning well to suit the commercial needs of the movie. Sakthi has narrated the tale of motherly sentiment laced with all commercial elements."[3] Sify criticized the film and asked "what the actor and his director was trying to convey through this film — a bit of sleaze and fun or steamy mother sentiments?"[4][5]
